With their fourth album, CLONES navels further from their metallic hardness towards rock. So they should make it finally let their shadow life behind and step into her own spotlight.
The move was not unexpected. Already the last EP "The Eye Of Needle" presented the progressive sound of the French far out bremster, but much more complex, and as yet the atmospheric heavy metal outworks. A development that also continues the new album "The Dreamer's Hideaway" consistently. Without denying their roots CLONES have managed to conduct their compositions even closer and more direct to get in shape. What in his description certainly applies to explain sounds complex, set to music in his way very straight forward and easy access. The French, however, not to use the structures of pop, but their songs skillfully steer towards the progressive rock and alternative. The final product sounds like this, when GOJIRA would operate on the creativity of PERFECT CIRCLE.
The band is called to get on the powerful scene with bands Andalusian Saurom size, Azrael, Sphinx and many others that deserve all the luck for their quality and delivery, but which we'll discuss in due course.Sombras del Destino practice are basically characterized by a heavy / power metal classic life, his voice by Angel Ruiz, with a fairly sharp ring that reminded me a lot, the whatever first Avalanch vocalist, Juan Lozano, later in Brecha ..The guitars are made by Victor Chica and Carlos Fuentes and passages are very classic, with powerful riffs, melodies recognizable easily, splittings of guitars, tapping and resources classic heavy / power, that we like.

The album features new vocalist participated Chuck Campbell, and the duration of the album is optimized for publication in the LP format
Italy's Ivory Moon returns after a five year recording absence to offer their third release, Dark Time. In that time period, the band has added a new female lead singer, Gabriella Aleo, to their vocal tandem which also includes Sandro Manicone.
Typical of the genre, Aleo adds an operatic style made common by other female singers in similar bands. Also, typical of Ivory Moon is their propensity for symphonic, even epic at times, power metal in the European tradition in general, and the Italian style, specifically.
The arrangements are large, offering the Aleo-Manicone duo of soaring vocals, power metal swiftness, lots of orchestral keyboards, and uplifting guitar solos. It's all the stuff that makes fans of European symphonic metal power metal drool.
Published on the Musea Parallèle label in 2012, "El Visionario" is the third rendition by the band, second one recorded in a studio. Despite the presence of two guitarists, Abel VALENTE and Carlos CATTANEO, and the upbeats and polyrhythmics of Juan GASCO and Sergio TOPHAM in drums and bass, and not to mention an obvious taste for heavy-metal, the music played by the fivesome has unquestionably a symphonic flavor, which leaves plenty of room for keyboards (Nahuel ACOSTA), and melody. With eight tracks composed by drummer and producer Juan GASCO, and one by former keyboard player Diego Yanivello, this album lies at the crossroads between LIQUID TENSION EXPERIMENT, PINK FLOYD and EMERSON, LAKE & PALMER, and OPETH. In the end, the listener might even find some resemblances with Jaime ROSAS, or even the compatriots of NEXUS. Nine tracks performed with great mastery, that should bring the Prog(d)heads out there back to life!

NOW!Debut..
I have to confess that I look a lot at work on the covers, and almost always hit in the music that I find on the disc.
But for everything there is an exception, I've noticed a lot in this cover, I returned to notice, but ignored the little big band album and I just discovered, is breathtaking quality of music have achieved with their debut "Precession" .
Skillfully combined the classic Heavy Metal, with a touch of power metal and an amazing speed that make each song, a hymn, simply spectacular.
Singer, songwriter and composer Collin McGee commented on the new album: "This album was years in the planning and over a year in the making. We hope that our fans will enjoy the work we have put into this new release. This album is for all our fans across the world.”
