February 22nd "Amber" is the first full length album by heavy/power metal band Kronowski. Ranging from the heavy and aggressive title track “Amber”, to the moody verses and sing-a-long chorus of lead single “Clean”, to a four part fifteen minute long epic closing suite, the album weaves through a myriad of influences while staying cemented by one guiding principle: well written, energetic heavy metal.
All songwriting, production, and performances on the album were done by the main member of the group Adam Kronowski, with lead guitar duties being rounded out by the formidable Tommy Lenzi. Dennis Ward (Helloween, Angra, Firewind) handled the mixing and Mika Jussila (Children of Bodom, Nightwish, Stratovarius) handled the mastering, making the album a world class experience from start to finish.
For those interested in the more heavy and aggressive side of the band, tracks like “Dead Man”, “The Gauntlet'', and “Amber” will be clear standouts, while those wanting a more melodic and rock experience will surely love “Clean”, “Coming Home'', and “Part of the Plan''. And for those who want to adventure into more experimental territory, look no further than the reggaeton breakdown and mid section of “Jasmine” or the winding closing epic “What’s a Man to Do”. There’s something here for every heavy enthusiast.
