Referring to Mexico
when talking about music isn't something you frequently do,
at least when the music is Metal; I don't know whether shows
like Operación Triunfo and similar idiocies are popular
in South America, though (although everyone knows about the
soaps). In any case, you can always find a little of everything
everywhere. This is not the exception, and from Mexico comes
this band of epic Power Metal, where the best thing we can find
is the guitar and the enthusiasm of the musicians, because the
rest is really quite poor.
A very limited voice, very basic, typical and monotonous rhythms,
canned drums... There are some melodies that sound interesting,
but nothing worth investing the time it takes to get another
beer in the fridge after finishing the previous one. Additionally,
and this is what definitely sinks the record, it has a resemblance
to Rhapsody, but to a shabby Rhapsody, and that is really all
we needed: another Rhapsody, but a poor version at that. You
just can't take it seriously; it's like if we tried to convince
you that Coronita is the official Paranoia Metal Show beer.
Keep on trying...
