Any fans of this band here? I picked up their Tales From Sadness release like two years ago through Sensory Music's discount section. That album stands as one of the best metal albums I've ever heard. They're a unique mix of power metal, thrash, progressive metal, and melodic death metal. By description it seems like it wouldn't work, but the band melds these styles flawlessly and it never seems unnatural. They're somewhat similar to Into Eternity, I guess.
They have a new album out now, Flies And Lies, and it's even getting a US release on 8/21! And it seems like it's going to be another outstanding piece of work. Here are some samples:
ROLLING CHANCES (New video from Flies And Lies)
MOOT-LIE (Full MP3 from Tales From Sadness)
THE EXPERIMENT (Clip from Tales From Sadness)
