Pyramaze-Immortal,Release dates:May 30th
Europe,June 24th 2008 U.S.A,Japan and Russain
release dates coming soon.Pyramaze is one of
my fav newer bands of the last couple of years
starting off with "legend Of the Bone Carver
Featuring Lance King On vocals.He is a supurb
singer in his own right and I'll add a link
for more info you can check out at the end.On
to Immortal This cd unlike others has a bit
more Iced Earth feel to it.No suprise here
considering the vocals are none other than
Matt Barlow (former and now returned vox for
Iced Earth.This Cd is killer through and
through.Melodic power metal at its finest.A
must for any power metal fan out there or even
if you just like Matt Barlow.

Virus IV-Dark Sun:Virus IV is a Belgium group
featuring the voice of one of metals finest
female singers Magali Luyten.She Has Appeared
on Cd's such as Beautiful Sin, Ayreon's Cd-
01011001.Though there listed on myspaxce as
metal/rock/goth I'd have to say there more
just pure metal through en' through which's
suits me quite well.The music is as tight as
any band out now.Vocally well for me just plain
dead on killer.One band I will be keeping my
eye on.Enjoy Metal heads.
