Thoughts: There music is VERY unique because of the fact that they use the SID chip from the Commodore 64. It brings something to their music that no other band that I've found has. Not to mention their vocals are very unique, but kinda' hard to get into. There guitars are heavy, hence the genre "Power Metal" which adds even more to there amazing sound. All in all this band is very unique and isn't something you'll just find anywhere.

Lol. I definitely recommend this band. In my top 3 favorites at the moment.

Nice review. Personally, I love the vocals. If whomever reads the review likes the music, but not the vocals, most of their other works are just instrumentals. Which is why I prefer their Redeemer album. Mostly vocals.

But yeah, you may have heard of this band before, as they did the Jet'N'Guns soundtrack, among other video game tunes.

Great music, but I don't care for the vocals too much.

Maybe they'll grow on me more.
