“Chapter V: A New Era Begins” is the next part of saga of “Legends Of The Forgotten Reign”, which Italian band KALEDON presents us. The title of the album and the cover-art betray us that the ten of Epic Power Metal compositions will conduct us through a fabulous world.
Sincerely saying, KALEDON is one of many bands from Power Metal yard… The tracks are very complex and perfectly played. Despite of all however the musical solutions contained in the album are typical for genre of Power Metal. Though in places we also will hear the guitar's solutions from under the sign of Heavy/Thrash Metal …
The heavy and the dynamic guitar's riffs co-operating with the powerful rhythmics of the drums and the bass create the basis of the works. The large quantities of masterly solo's shows of the keys and the guitars in neo-classic or progressive style complete the whole. Anyway the parties of the keys are pretty complex here and in places they are outright symphonic or in style of Ambient. And certainly the melodious vocalist's singing sounds on the front of musical subjects supported by the backing singers.
The every work of KALEDON possesses own leitmotiv or the characteristic melodious line of refrain as usually is in Power Metal arrangements. In addition here also did not lack more nostalgic subjects in style of the ballads. And the whole of album is well-kept in quick, dynamic pace with temporary changes of the rhythm. The compositions create very majestic, full of pathos climate with brave and fabulous mood (what it is underlined by different sounds previous some songs). Moreover the parties of the classic guitar also make the suitable mood.
Well, on the end of all I will add that KALEDON has many to offering for fans of bands in style of HAMERFALL or BLIND GUARDIAN.
