DARK AGES's Latin America promotion

We are very happy to announce the great DARK AGES's Latin America promotion, review written by famous journalist Lucas H. Gordon.

"Dark Ages es un grupo italiano de metal que se formó en 1982, por el guitarrista Simone Calciolari, quien pasó los primero nueve años tocando hasta que pudiera sacar su primer disco “Saturnalia”.
Haciendo un metal clásico, de corte épico, y sin abusar de la velocidad motora de la parte rítmica, el “Tano” ahora se despacha con esta segunda parte de una ópera compuesta por dos mitades.
La primera parte la comenté en el 2011, donde recuerdo haber hablado que cierta lírica viene influenciada por la cultura asiria, pero la historia se encuentra emplazada en el siglo XIX.
Davide Cagnata es quien se encarga de ponerle voz a esta historia, donde provee una voz de tono medio y con una vez u tanto gastadita y hasta gruñona, y donde casi recita en ciertos pasajes. Muy buena su labor en especial poniéndole énfasis al relato.
Hay muchas melodías, en donde incorporan a la flauta, dándole un toque folclórico al asunto.
Las guitarras siempre están presentes y por ningún momento la crudeza de este instrumento deja de mostrarse.
Incluso en partes donde la línea historia se torna a una grata suavidad y paz, luego vuelve a dar paso a la electricidad de las seis cuerdas.
La oscuridad, también continua donde quedó este asunto en la parte I, con algunos teclados y arreglos que le dan la pizca lúgubre a ciertos momentos.
Lo progresivo no queda de lado, con composiciones extensas de ocho minutos, otras de casi trece y con variantes dentro de las mismas, algo bastante tradicional en el sub estilo.
Es difícil terminar una reseña siendo original, cuando uno ya lleva algunas miles escritas.
Creo que con agregar que apoyen a las discográficas independientes, y no sumen a la piratería, será un bien cierre.

ALICATE's Latin America promotion

We are very happy to announce the great ALICATE's Latin America promotion, review written by famous journalist Lucas H. Gordon.
Below the original spanish review and all media links!

METAL FOX (Argentina)
- MUNDO ROCK (Colombia)
- ROCK EN CUBA (Cuba)
- CANEDO ROCK (Spain)

"Resulta que Alicate es una excelente banda sueca dentro de la vertiente mas melódica de rock duro.
El cuarteto se había formado en 1985, en la ciudad de Perstorp, Suecia, por Jonas Erixon y el actual bajista Fredrik Ekberg, siendo fielmente un grupo de hard rock clásico, hasta el día de hoy.
Este álbum es el sucesor a su CD debut “World of Anger” (2009) y el cual también me gustaría reseñar.

En lo vocal es donde se presenta la similar forma de cantar de Jonas Erixon con la de David Coverdale, coincidiendo con mis colegas en un sonido muy cercano al de Whitesnake.
Alguna casualidad de que el tema cinco se titule “Forevermore” (nombre también de uno de las placas mas recientes de la Víbora Blanca)?
Algunas piezas, como se puede notar en “I Believe”, saltan al metal melódico, con una base mas acelerada, pero sin perder la armonía vocal, la cual viene acompañada por una armonía instrumental dada por el halo de los teclados. Acá si mal no recuerdo, me viene a la mente el sonido de Mob Rules o Masterplan.

Cuando comienza “Can't Change It” el riffeo alocado que se perpetra en su comienzo es como si se sintiese a Adrian Vandenverg dándole machaque a las cuerdas.
En lo personal y por lo tanto que me gusta este tipo de composición/estilo/voz, me parece un muy buen disco, aunque no haya encontrado ningún track que esté dentro de los que mas me gustan.
Quienes suelen leer mis reseñas, saben que me gusta las canciones tipo “Pour Some Sugar on Me” de Def Leppard o “Get it On” de Firehouse.

En fin, ya sé que el día que me quede sin Whitesnake, no me voy a tener que comer las uñas, porque voy a tener Alicate!"
