Back in 1994 there was a little Czech band formed called
NEMESIS, which went on releasing an album in 2003 on the Italian
label UNDERGROUND SYMPHONY RECORDS. However, the band’s big
break came after their lead singer left the band, because
it was then when OLAF HAYER (LUCA TURILLI, DIONYSUS) came
into the picture and became the band’s lead singer. The band
changed their name to SYMPHONITY and were signed to LIMB MUSIC,
on which they now release their album ‘Voice from the silence’.
The album is very cliché tingled, nothing original, but don’t
let that put you off as the CD is sounding very impressive
and could well be the perfect mix between HELLOWEEN, STRATOVARIUS
and EDGUY, so typical European fast Melodic Power Metal is
what’s for supper here. Most of the songs are indeed fast
uptempo pieces with catchy hooks and easy to sing-a-long melodic
choruses in classic HELLOWEEN/GAMMA RAY style. Especially
the long epic “Evening star” should be mentioned as one of
the absolute highlights here, but fans of mentioned bands
will absolutely love this non-stop fast paced uptempo Melodic
Power Metal record that is filled with loadsa hits for ya!
