The debut album from this band from Great Britain.
The band was a quartet with a line-up of drums, bass, guitars, mandolin, programming, flute and vocals.
Three guests added drums, flute and female vocals.
This is a new band to me. They have just released their second album and I will review it in some days time.
Lakesongs of Elbid clocks in at seventy minutes.
The music is folk rock.
The music is indeed folk rock.... but there is also a lot of chugging metal guitars here. Their take on folk rock is therefore muscular and pretty commercial.
The music is also epic and progressive. There are indeed a lot of symphonic prog influences in their music.
The guitars are very good here. The vocals are also very good.
There is a lot to like here and there is no doubts this band is very talented and may go far. This is indeed a very good album.
3.5 points
