The Sword - Age of Winters (2006)



This band is not that famous but you might have heard about them already, they are from Texas and believe it or not this album stands as some sort of demo!...well if you've never come across that band, then you're pretty likely to like 'em as they play a sorta old heavy metal / doom style , ...recalls Black Sabbath to my mind actually (but it sounds modern whatsoever!)...the album is really groovy and chuggy and i found it pretty good! it's definitely one of the best i heard in the style so far...powerful, melodic, with great drumming...this band stand poised like a tough warrior that won't be easily defeated! as their moniker suggests they are axe masters, so don't hold back your blows.... \m/
