LUCA TURILLI / DEMONHEART

If you have been visiting my site before you will know that I have a passion for Rhapsody, so if you are looking for a non-biased review of this CD you are in the wrong place.

This is Rhapsody's guitarist's pre cursor to his 2^nd solo album due for release soon and thus is a taster of what is to come, as if we didn’t already know. The title tracks kicks off in fine style, nothing new here but what you get is top notch Power Metal in the style of Helloween / Gamma Ray that is second to none. The track "I'm Alive" is in a similar vein and I defy anyone to say that this is not Euro Metal at it's best.

As with all Rhapsody related releases their has to be the over the top attitude, and there is an edited version of the title track of the upcoming Prophets of the Final Eclipse album and if this is anything to go by it should be even better than his debut.

If you like Power Metal with strong Melody, lightning fast licks and enough energy to light up a small town, you will love this.

TOTAL PLAYING TIME = 24 mins + 6 TRACKS
