Album description

fr This text is not available in your chosen language, we are displaying it in its original language.

"Curse of Ice" est la première réalisation du groupe Weirdland.

C'est une maquette de 4 titres d'une durée approximative de 23 minutes.

Cette démo a été entièrement autoproduite; l'enregistrement, le mixage et le mastering sont le fruit du travail du 'Gilman studio mob' à St Etienne, assisté de nos oreilles attentives.

La jaquette a été conçue par Laetitia Vitali, que nous remercions encore pour nous avoir fait bénéficier de son travail.

The production values aren't the highest, the vocals aren't the best but damn did it do something for me. This provided me with that invaluable, surging joy that absolutely makes or breaks an album for anyone who's devoted to their music.

Driving rhythms, clever pace changes, skilled instrumentation... it's fresh out of the glory days of NWOBHM.

A decent approach to 80's american power metal sound. I found influences from the early works of Fates Warning and Queensryche.

The tracks are well structured with interesting guitar work, though a second guitar could help for a more compact sound, especially during the solos.

Overall, worth giving it a try.

This is one awesome, powerful, dynamic sounding, heavy metal band and album, that really kicks ass. Great sounding tracks, full of energy and a lead singer that gives his heart and soul to this brilliant music. Good lyrics, that makes it stand out even more. Love the drummer, guitarist. I can fully understand why so many have download this album, since 2006..

Exciting, emotive and complex, but as with a lot of speed and thrash metal, it spends a lot of complexity in one riff then simply repeats that riff for a while and the emotion is difficult to unlock amongst a film of rhythmic repetition within each riff. Also, I can hear the plectrum hitting the bass guitar.

Nonetheless, the vocals are passionate, there is variation when you have unlocked it and the bass has something to say.

As others mentioned, this is the legacy of artists like old Maiden and Priest. I hear some Helloween touch in the vocals.

Nice, eighties-style metal with some contemporarily-inspired guitar work, all together form metal as it was supposed to be.

What I don't get is the name of the artist...

Weirdland have put soul into this album - you can feel it as you listen to the energetic guitar solos and the throbbing bass - but a lot of the time the vocalist sounds like he's trying too hard. A pleasant album to listen to, definitely, but certainly not a groundbreaker. Still, the album manages to make me want to bop along.

'Vallhalla for Reward' especially has a good beat and steady guitar work. I doubt there is anyone who can listen to this album and say that overall it was bad, that would be a lie.
