Last year we reviewed the debut CD of the Finnish female
Soprano singer KATRA, which was released on UNIVERSAL MUSIC.
Now a year later, she has signed a contract for the rest of
Europe to the Napalm Records label, on which she has released
‘Beast within’. Musically nothing has changed, although big
difference is the fact she now sings in English instead of
Finnish. Musically it is a sort of lighter version of NIGHTWISH/EDENBRIDGE
kinda Opera Metal. It does sound quite well and very professional,
must-have for fans of the genre, although it brings nothing
new to the genre. However, ‘Beast within’ is a good decent
album for sure, with 12 very fine tracks, although I am afraid
it might end up losing it’s originality after a while, because
there are simply too many similar releases done these past
few years, although if you think NIGHTWISH has gone a bit
off-topic with their latest release, ‘Beast within’ is a good
substitute.
