Seraphim
[title unknown]
Reviewed by Jeff Lott
I really enjoyed this band's last three-song demo, but it doesn't hold a candle to this 10-song piece of power metal. From the opening chord of "Overcome" to the sassiness of "Can't Lose It" to the smokin' hot lead in "Reach Out," it's quite obvious Seraphim were ready to rock; and, believe me, they have no problem in this area. While drummer Brian Biter and bassist Mike Serrano held the rhythm together, it was guitarist Andrew Rhoades with his blazing leads and vocalist Darin Helton and his wailing vocals that blew me away.
This tape gets better with every listen; so, if you enjoy melodic metal, get this tape before they run out! For ordering info, write: 5300 Plaza St, Portage, IN 46368.
