KRAGENS - Infight


Here we have a French band that managed to draw the attention of all those not familiar with their style, such as I. First of all, if you are a fan of Nevermore, Iced Earth, or good old-fashioned Power Metal, you will find plenty to like on this album. These guys know when to be melodic, when to speed up, and, for sure, know how to create music, catchy at all times, with touches from Thrash and razor-sharp riffs. Another thing that makes the album even more pleasant is the vocal capabilities of the singer. Harsh and raw vocals, not the typical high pitched one should expect, sometimes flirting with more brutal forms, but always fitting perfect with the style of the music. There is not a single weak point in this album, and the evebetteret thing is that there's enough variety in the songs, to keep the listener interested until the end. All in all, it's a vercarefulll work, with extra attention paid to the last detail. A must have.
10/10
