Severed Angel: “Skyward” Digital and CD 3rd May 2024 Self Released. USA Heavy / Power / Metal / Progessive band.
A year after the release of their first album, the band is back with a brand new album! It seems like they never stop composing. A versatile inspiration combining several influences with many passages. Like an Opera rock, you have several voices with different moods. You are embarking on a journey like an audio book telling you stories in an entertaining moment.
Another hero on the cover, this time looking more like an angel compared to the previous warrior one. Melting with modern bands, a mix of plenty of influences kind be a bit disturbing at first except if you are used to the new bands and sounds. Keyboardist Marc Muchnik has a big part in this new opus. Melodies and fast-kicking heavy riffs. Oriental parts, growling voice, everything is here to please the masses.
Chirugical passages à la Meshuggah, cuting edge of the Heavy Metal style. This album has much mainstream sound that will gain tons of new fans for sure. A blend old sound with new ones making Severed Angel a modern Metal band.
