Country: Chile
“Black & Cold” is the second material of Chilean band which compositions oscillate in climates of progressive- neoclassical Power Metal, it is hear clearly in the every song where masterly skills of every of musicians find their going away… The songs boil over by masterly difficult instrumental playing not only in progressive style but and in baroque style as fugue. And the every sound is not accidental but perfectly finished up to appear in closely definite moment.
Obviously DELTA creates typically Power Metal climate apart from lots of solo parties and the difficult playing. The climate is full quick dynamic the guitar's riffs and the strong hitting of the rhythmical section with leadership of the melodious singing in falsetto tone and strengthened by the backing singers.
Though the everysong is different musical motive then the whole is very coherent and professionally arranged. Here also does not lack balladic themes and unmusical of introductions in style of thematic dialogue scenes to some songs… This is just the second material of the band and it is hearing that DELTA grows in strength already! But will DELTA let success in faintly popular progressive metal market? I hope because the band is admirable.
