Vandor - The Ember Eye Part 2: The Portal Of Truth +3 (CD)

Swords in hand and ride into battle! The Swedish melodic power metal band VANDOR storm the grounds of honorable warriors like RHAPSODY (OF FIRE), FREDOMM CALL, DRAGONFORCE, SONATA ARCTICA and YGNWIE MALMSTEEN. Epic, anthemic and, of course, cliche-ladden songs, which are more or less obligatory in this very style can be found on album number three. A great, multi-facetted sound and many above-average songs let "The Ember Eye Part 2: The Portal Of Truth" shine. Frontman and lead guitarrist Vide Bjerde doesn't have to hide at all. (MS)
