To
be honest with you I never expected to receive a package from
the United States and the music to have elements from my neighbor
country Turkey. But let me explain to you. Hazerfan
even if they come from United States has two founding members
that are Turkish and they just moved to the USA.
Here
we have their latest self financed album which has nine tracks
and almost forty minutes of pure hard rock music with traditional
music elements from Turkey. So we can say that this band combines
the hard rock with the folk music, like folk metal, but not
so extreme.
Because
I live in Greece and we have some common elements in our folk
music I found the stuff from Hazerfan too familiar
and in the same time, I didn't like it because I am used to
hearing our folk music alone, without rock or metal elements.
But
other than that I must admit that the band had written a very
impressive album and their compositions are well worked with
very interesting ideas inside them. For sure Hazerfan
gives their personal vision to the hard rock scene.
