Here the next heavy metal band from Japan as well as next Japanese band with girl. This is third, who I know. The vocal side occupied Kimiko Shirao, and the rest of band are Kensuke Imai – the drummer, Toshimasa Kato – the bass player as well as Tsutomu Ariga – the guitarist. This is the first demo of team, they have on account the three demos, but the next demos I will review soon
The demo consists 4 the technically brave of composition, and first of them is the title song
who beginning the “fabulous-classic” parties of keyboards and to them gradually add the parties of strong drums as well as the heavy guitar riffs, which in the whole these parties give rhythmical with changing pace and the very melodious power/heavy metal. The gentle and soft (with Japanese accent) singing Kimiko accompanies to the music. The song is rich in the melodious and brisk solo parties of guitars as well as keys with varied sound (e.g. of harpsichord). The heavy and speed guitar riffs helped by suitably dosed the rhythmical section create the background for the very melodious phrases of vocals-instrumental. In the song appear the frequent changes of pace and mood, which are underlined by keyboard parties and melancholy singing
The next tune is “Unholy Believers”, which begins the gentle nostalgic motive of piano, which it passes in the sharper melodious heavy metal parties. The tune is well-kept in the similar speed pace with temporary his decelerations. The arrangements are built on the basis of quick rhythmical guitars riffs and solo parties of guitar and keys with virtuosity. The all parties together the gentle vocal lines bring the dose of melancholy as well as ubiquitous breeze of classic music
“Sun In The Night” begins the quick lively as well as the melodious phrases. The whole of the song continues the fabulous-melancholy and power/heavy metal climate. Here, Kimiko permitted herself on some vocal expression with the gentle anger
The demo crown “Drop Of The Ocean” – the tune equally fast but also variable, sharp as well as with rich arrangements and also full of virtuosity, melody and nostalgia. The generally WIZARDS' HYMN inhere strongly in heavy/power metal's climate or in neoclassical metal's climate. They is possible to compare to the bands of type HAMMERFALL and STRATOVARIUS.
