FOGALORD – Masters Of War
FOGALORDS’s 2012 debut, „A Legend To Believe In“ was a surprising album of the symphonic-/epic metal genre, which was welcomed with overall positive reviews. Now, five years later, its successor entitled „Masters Of War“, is a work with a theme concerning itself with the story of the debut work, a concept album.
„Masters Of War“ bursts with classical-epic songwriting, heartfelt choirs, passages influenced by folklore, bagpipes and galopping rhythms, as well as insertions of influences of genres from melodic black metal to heartspeeding power metal bass attacks. Fans of bombastic sounds, supported by galloping riffs and a true fist-in-the-air attitude, will love this album.
