Having
almost ten years of history and one album already released
back in 2000, i think it was the right time in order to bring
to your audience your next step which has the title "The
Metal Chronicles" and released before some weeks.
Also SJK, which is the moniker for this band, had already
played with Motorhead back in 2000, with W.A.S.P.
last years and with Megadeth this year
and all these from SJK a power metal band who comes
from Bulgaria. Personally i don't know many bands from this
country and i believe that their political situation forced
a lot of them not to release a demo or an album, so you can
see that SJK has worked hard in order to release this
album for all of you. As i said above the band walks in the
power metal paths and you can expect all the things that you
want to hear from a power metal band, powerful drums, very
good guitar riffs and solos and of course a very good singer
which is all the "money" from this album. SJK
had made a great choice for the position behind the microphone.
But don't expect another typical power metal band, for example
the band had used some elements from the death metal era.
Generally SJK impressed me, because i didn't believe
to hear such good piece of work from a band that comes from
Bulgaria but with this you can see that if you work hard you
will see the results someday for sure.
