Sentiment is a newcomer band from the land of the 1000 lakes, Finland, playing a superb mixture of classic hard rock and in-your-face heavy metal tunes.
BIOGRAPHY:
Sentiment was formed in 1996, by Jami (drums) and Toni (guitar) Huovinen. At first the band started with a progressive angle, but soon changed their style into more straightforward melodic metal with a lot of hard rock influences.
The current line up was reached after countless member changes. Michael Henneken (ex-Silent Voices, vocals) joined forces with the Huovinen brothers (Jami - drums and Toni - guitars) in 2004 and it was then that they recorded the "Breaking the Chains"-promo disc.
They started to write new material and began searching for a new bass player and a keyboardist soon after. Kari Tornack (ex-Thunderstone, ex-Tunnelvision, ex-Mannerheim, keyboards) decided to join the band in the summer of 2007, after promising to handle live shows in 2005 for as long as Sentiment finds a permanent replacement for their previous keyboardist. Janne Laaksonen (Kilpi) took over the bass at the beginning of 2008.
Sentiment started the recordings of their first album, "From Here To Ever After", in December of 2005 after deciding to finance it themselves, due to the poor contracts offered by several record labels.
The band has opened shows to bands like Stratovarius, Kotipelto, Terasbetoni and Kilpi, and thanks to their connections to the Helsinki's metal scene, they managed to get Jens Johansson (Stratovarius, ex-Yngwie Malmsteen, ex-David Lee Roth, ex-Dio) to contribute a solo to the album and the bands close friend Tero "Mc Spain" Kostermaa to record and to co-produce it. Also Timo Kotipelto, Pasi Rantanen, Jarkko Ahola, Sami Virtanen, Anssi Stenberg, Pasi Nykanen and Thomas Nystrand have contributed to build Sentiment's first album.
"From Here To Ever After" is not just a great album in the classic sense, but also a statement of a new major-player on the heavy metal / hard rock scene. From the in-your-face metal tunes like opener "The Dark Side" and "From Here To Ever After", over the neo-classical power metal songs such as "The Black Star", to the classic hard rock songs like "The Last Day" and the power-ballad "Mourning Light".

Los Power Metal argentinos Renacer,
lanzaron el pasado 01 de Octubre de 2011 ‘Bienvenidos al show’ DVD/CD doble en vivo, con el que celebran el 10º aniversario de la banda,
en los cuales han grabado 4 álbumes de estudio, realizaron una importante gira por México en 2007
y tuvieron la fortuna de abrir los shows de grandes bandas en su país, destacando el HELLISH TOURHELLOWEEN /GAMMA RAY en 2008
Renacer es una banda Argentina de Power/Heavy Metal melódico formada en 2001, por el vocalista Christian Bertoncelli, quien abandono Imperio debido a diferencias musicales. El cantante quería menos teclados y más poder en su música, como en los inicios de la banda. Esto se ve reflejado en los discos de Renacer.
Bertoncelli y el guitarrista Gustavo Gorosito fueron los ex-integrantes de Imperio que formaron originalmente Renacer, pero Gorosito dejó el proyecto en seguida y Juan Pablo Kilberg tomó el puesto. Jorge Perini, que anteriormente había estado en Imperio y en Jeriko, se hizo cargo de la batería.
En 2003 Kilberg y Perini dejaron la agrupación y conformaron Magika.

With the release of their self-titled album Edinburgh band Symphony Of Gunfire have concreted what many have been saying around the UK for a while, that there is a new force in rock emerging. A reputation for energetic and passion drenched live shows goes before them and with their debut album the quartet show they can carry it into their recordings just as well. Their sound, an instinctive blend of hard rock, melodic shred metal with a splash of thrash here and there, is a driving and creative beast that their name represents perfectly. It majestically caresses and swoops around the ear whilst hitting hard with shotgun effect.

We have left the soul and the skin in each of the songs, all wrapped in a really special atmosphere. It"s been a great pleasure to present the Apocalypse with our music and describe the universe of these two great artists. '
The illustrations themselves are the first to roll over in his praise. Luis Royo warns that 'the hair bristling with you every note of Malefic Time: Apocalypse to penetrate you. The owls flapping guitar chords that seem to injury, the whispers of hell ... Avalon has known all that amazingly reflect the Apocalypse. '
For its part also praised Romulo Royo emphasizing the result: 'The music created Avalanch not leave anyone indifferent, enriched and wraps around the universe with its highlights and shadows, is a high'.

ARRAYAN PATH – IRA IMPERIUM (2011)
Dec 2, 2011 21:52
Heavy Metal |Power Metal
How much of a good thing is too much? Arrayan Path returns with their third album,Ira Imperium, with 13, count them, tracks of melodic and epic power metal. Thankfully, as in the case of their previous album, Arrayan Path is quite good at what they do. Nevertheless, my ultimate question with this album was, 'What are they doing, the third time out, that distinguishes them from whole European power metal pack?' Persistence and consistency in their craft, while important, aren't enough.
Nevertheless, against my reluctant speculation (or criticism), there are some noteworthy moments here. Before speaking to those, there seems to be a loose theme running through these songs: many relate to legend, history, and mythology. Certainly, these themes are the makings of classic power metal. This leads to the first of several notable songs: K(C)atherine of Aragon, the first, and most significant, of Henry VIII's six wives. This piece is heavier than expected, but remains epic. The segue at 2' 30" with the addition of female bgvs over lighter guitar and drums add significant color.
Above, Arrayan Path: a six man powerhouse of epic and melodic power metal.
For more melodic (and fast) heavy metal with some big hooks and a clever groove, both Ira Imperium and 77 Days Til Doomsday are two more notable songs on Ira Imperium. Honestly, the latter, with the lyrical hooks and strong vocal arrangement, is quite inspired.
The final notable songs are at the end. The Fall of Mardonius reminds of the pattern that Iron Maiden gave to this genre. It's epic and diverse, and has a strong male choral background vocal arrangement. The bonus track weighs against the heavy and fast paced power metal motif, offering a lighter arrangement: mostly vocals with pianos, synths, and carefully dramatic drums. Yet, it fits and, as a part of the whole, makes the entire album more pleasing.
Don't get me wrong here. Every song on Ira Imperium stands on its own, offering its own definitive characteristics. Generally, and perhaps significantly, this is, once more, Arrayan Path's strength: persistence and consistency in the abundance of their creative output. Thirteen songs of well-crafted melodic power metal? Over an hour's worth of tunes? It's hard to quibble with that.
Recommended, even if it's more of the same.
