Cost: $2.99
Varied melodic power metal. Songwriting is all over the place, as some songs have groovy, modern sounding riffs, but others incorporate Deep Purple/Rainbow style keyboards and go for a more '70s feel. There's a lot of hard rock influence--some of the harmonized choruses made me think of '80s hair bands, and even singer Stefano Marchesini seems more like a hard rock vocalist than a typical power metal one. I didn't come away from this particularly impressed, but I suppose this is better than another 3rd rate Helloween/Blind Guardian/Hammerfall emulator.
They also pull off a good cover of Rainbow's "Tarot Woman" at the end (despite the fact Stefano pronounces the second t in tarot).
