Dating back to as far as 1990, the Swedish band SILENT
CALL finally releases it’s debut-CD. The album is released
on ESCAPE MUSIC and without a doubt we have a winner here,
because it is filled with superb high quality Melodic Progressive
Metal that is an easy target for fans of VANDENPLAS, THRESHOLD,
PAGAN’S MIND, MIND’S EYE, SILENT EDGE, SUNCAGED, etc. etc.
Melodies and fantastic instrumental work is making this an
absolute masterpiece, owing a lot to lead singer ANDI KRAVLJACA
(ex-SEVENTH WONDER), who has got an amazing voice, reaching
easily the high octaves. The 13 songs are also very strong,
with some amazing melodies here and there, with as highlights
“My way, my time”, “Bloodred sky” (lovely!), “Outcast”, “I
believe in me” and “Long comes the night” (fantastic!). This
is really a must-have and perhaps one of the surprise releases
of 2008, definitely the best Melodic Progmetalalbum so far
this year! More info at: www.silentcall.se
