I have been following BLAZON RITE since their debut Mini LP. Their next full length was also a remarkable release for my musical taste and I can easily admit that I would stay into the same positive background about their new release as well.

Combining the classic Heavy Metal forms with arcane Epic Metal this band delivers a very special type of music that opens a wide range of escapism back to ancient quests, dark realms and moonlight rides.

Solid guitar riffing, vocals that are progressively blessing all the songs with a touch of obscurity and in many cases some remarkable proto-Epic references that add to the overall atmosphere of the record.

Great band. Great release.

I breathe for music. And I am more than sure that my mission in this universe is to make everybody agree that "Awaken The Guardian" by FATES WARNING is the best album ever released, yes in all musical genres. My next mission is to feed homeless cats and when I am not busy with all this stuff I listen to US Prog / Power and Epic Doom Metal. And I cast spells in rituals in order to awake the old ones.
