Skelator hails from the United
States and last year they had released their latest self financed
mini CD with the title "Swords". The band
included five tracks and more than thirty five minutes of
duration. The band walks in the paths of the traditional heavy
metal in the vein of the 80s with a lot of epic metal elements.
Maybe we can say that barbaric metal
is a very good description for their music direction. Their
compositions are well developed with some really good ideas
and the guitar work is really good, with impressive guitar
riffs.
The production could be better but
at least you can hear all the instruments clearly and the
band had given us some really good piece of music for all
the traditional heavy metal fans. Maybe this isn't the new
wave of the metal these days, but i think that Skelator
will find their way.
