New MISTHERIA album "Dragon Fire" massive amounts of virtuoso's on this one! Massive progressive metal with melodic vocals !
Keyboard virtuoso Mistheria returns with an all star cast for the neoclassical progressive metal tour de force Dragon Fire. Home to 13 tracksof full on metal pomposity, this is music crafted around stirring vocal melodies and impassioned first class musicianship. The virtuoso meter of the personnel involved sets a new standard and fans of artists such as Symphony X, Malmsteen and Artension will find this a sheer musical delight.
The vocalists comprise of John West (Artension/Royal Hunt), Rob Rock (Impellitteri/Solo), Mark Boals (ex Malmsteen/Ring Of Fire/Royal Hunt), Lance King (Balance Of Power / Pyramaze) and Titta Tani (ex Astra / Ashent). Each vocalists unique style has been selected for the appropriate track to deliver Mistherias vision. The same process was used for the guitarists with George Bellas (solo/Ring Of Fire), Neil Zaza (solo), Roger Staffelbach (Artension/Angel Of Eden) and Emir Hot (solo) plying their virtuoso guitar work which blend beautifully with Mistheria keyboards to recreate the classic guitar/keyboard pairing in all its glory. The bass was ably handled by Alberto Rigoni (Twinspirits) and drums come courtesy of John Macaluso (Ark, TNT, ex Malmsteen) whose performance is full of high‐power heavy grooves and tons of energy making this one of his best performances to date. Yet despite the number of musicians involved there is an impressive sense of cohesion to the material all thanks to the quality of Mistherias initial vision shining through in all aspects. Even the sound of the album has produced and mixed to his own personal taste.

New SEVEN THORNS album "Return to the Past" (Danish Power Metal)
"Seven Thorns is power metal in its purest form! Catchy melodies, fast guitars and blasting drums are the key components on the Return to the Past. Seven Thorns is definitely aiming for the stars, the awesome lead guitarist of At Vance, a giant within the power metal genre, Olaf Lenk, features on one of the certain hits, Liberty, with a frightening fast guitar solo. Many of the keyboard parts were played by the very skilled Mikkel Henderson (Fate, Evil Masquerade). And the icing on top is Mastering by the legendary, Danish power metal producer, Tommy Hansen.
