Excalion
is a new born band coming from Finland. After two demos the
band achieves to secure a record deal with Sound Riot Records
and before three months they released their debut album with
the title "Primal Exhale". The album has
nine tracks in the European edition and if i am not mistaken
tweleve in the Japanese edition. The band didn't offer you
something new in the music scene. Their music genre is typical,
symphonic power metal with all the things that you want to
hear, with great vocals, very interesting keyboard parts and
well worked guitars. The thing that made the debut album from
Excalion really good and above average is that they
play their music directly from their heart. First of all they
are fans of this music and you can see that in their compositions
which are well worked with interesting ideas. Vesa
had done a very nice work in the guitars and their solos are
remarkable. If you want to hear a new fresh band, you can
choose the last effort from Excalion, i believe that
you will find a small diamond here. Check them out you maybe
you won't surprise but as least you will adore their stuff.
It is like the stuff from Iron Maiden, you love
them even if you know what they will bring to you in their
new album. The only think i want to pay attention to the band
is to work more in their sound. I hope they will have a more
massive sound in their next release.
