Okej, ny recension av "Chapter III" kom upp för en liten tid sedan på amerikanska metal websidan www.hardrockplace.com. "Som vanligt", för den som inte orkar gå in sidan kan läsa omdömet här nedan.
STÖD DENIED!
After hearing the three song EP or demo from Sweden's "Denied", I'm already convinced these guys are onto bigger things. Everything I like in my Power Metal is here, big hooks, gang shouting, blistering solos and crunchy guitars, thundering drums and bass, and a vocalist who can tear it up. They also have "something" that sets them apart. The music is pretty dark and has more of a groove, in other words, it sounds like a modern version of the Classic Metal sound.
Guitarist Andreas Carlsson's guitar sound is menacing, dark and heavy. New Jaded Heart vocalist Johan Fahlberg has some great range, but he's also got a nice scratch to his voice that make him sound a big more sinister. Pete Dolls on drums and Robert Stellmar on bass are provide "Denied" with a steel backbone and help tie everything together.
While I admit they're not doing anything completely ground-breaking, they are putting their own mark on a Power Metal scene that sometimes lacks in imagination. I think the little things this band is doing will set them apart from the wave of Power Metal coming out of Europe.
