AT VANCE Ride the Sky
AFM says "At Vance had created their own interpretation of
neo-classical Power Metal that crosses elegantly with the true spirit
of 80's Hard Rock. It's all here: lightning-quick smashers ("End Of
Days"), anthemic, riff-based tracks ("Burning Like Fire"), stomping
hymns ("Ride The Sky"), powerful, dramatic tunes ("Salvation Day") and
even a cover version of the Free classic "Wishing Well". On "Farewell"
the band adds a progressive touch to their sound. Rick Altzi does a
tremendous job on vocals while Lenk comes up with some of the best
tracks he has ever written, with brilliant guitar licks galore."

AXXIS Utopia
AFM says ""Utopia" is a melodic Metal hurricane, varied in speed and
arrangements, covering perfectly the area of melodic Power Metal as
well as the classic Hard Rock sound that Axxis has stood for since
their debut in the late 80´s. Axxis vocalist Berhard Weiss says
of "Utopia", "Recording-wise we put a lot of power into the guitar
sound. Different amps, mics and different guitars for each song.
Everything should fit perfectly to the songs." Welcome to "Utopia"!"

album to date. Memorial Roots is another step forward in the steady

DEVIL'S BLOOD The Time Of No
Time Evermore
AFM says "First conceived in Holland in 2006, The Devil's Blood hark
back to the days of the earliest 70s Heavy Metal, liberally dosed with
the darker side of late 60s psychedelia, and dark Folk/occult type
stuff. "The Time Of No Time Evermore" is their highly anticipated debut
full length, following up the underground smash ep, "Come Reap" from
2008. Epic stuff, virtually unclassifiable, firmly rooted in the old
fields with eyes transfixed on tomorrow. A visionary blend of
Hard/Psych/Acid and even Art Rock, dripping with obsessively detailed
satanic ritual. This is The Time Of No Time Evermore."

EDGUY The Savage Poetry
AFM says "After achieving their breakthrough with the "Vain Glory
Opera" album in 1998, Edguy became the epitome of strength, power,
quality and an infallible instinct for adorable melodies. The newly
recorded version of "The Savage Poetry" combines the old songs (that
secured the band their first record deal) with killer production and
marks its debut release in the US! "The Savage Poetry" proves that the
old songs, written by teenage kids at the time, have the special
"something" that separates the good from an amazing band." Great
melodic Euro power metal; one of the band's best albums (if not their
best).

GRIFTEGARD Solemn Sacred Severe
digi
AFM says "Hailing from Sweden, "Solem. Sacred. Severe." is
Griftegård's initial full length release, an emotionally crushing
and melodic brand of funeral-paced, traditional Doom that will leave
you staring at the bottom of an empty bottle of spirits. Heavy and
grinding but never painfully dull and with loud, crisp, crashing tones,
"Solem. Sacred. Severe." reminds one of Candlemass, Isole or Memory
Garden but never strays too far from their own burial grounds. The
superficial, the shallow, the empty has no place in Griftegård's
universe."

hymn Ashen Paradise are clearly amongst the very best Power Metal songs

combined with rough, heavy rockers, all melted together by Jon's unique

MANIMAL The Darkest Room
Awesome Swedish melodic power metal with superb vocals and melodies in
the style of Crimson Glory, Queensyrche, Lethal, etc., mixed with the
heavy guitar power crunch of bands like Tad Morose and Savatage.
Overall expect a sound like Jester's March's classic 'Beyond' album
mixed with Lethal's masterpiece 'Programmed', but with a slight
European flavor, heavy bottom end, and possibly catchier, more
contemporary songwriting. 9 near perfect tracks clocking in at a filler
free 40 minutes. One of the best metal albums of recent memory.

MOB
RULES Radical Peace
AFM says "Radical Peace" presents a multitude of stylistic
variations and effective surprises in a musical direction that is
clearly and consciously not watered-down by pseudo-modern frippery.
Their tight interaction between deep melodic vocals, two powerful
guitars, atmospheric keyboard passages and a driving basic rhythm is
rare among European bands. The direction of the new album is
unmistakable, sounding much tougher compared to their previous
offerings, without forgetting the essential features of the typical Mob
Rules sound."

themselves as following the tradition of these bands, they have got so
much more to offer" (Rock Hard Germany 06/08). This new German force in
the Melodic Metal realm is said to be one of the most inventive new
bands and the big zines' journalists praise the masterly and unique
mixture of traditional Power Metal with modern elements, folk and
progressive influences, as well as elements from the Gothic field." A
