Over the
years they have released a few demos with various lineups. They now have a
solid quintet of musicians that features founder keyboardist Marco Sneck, Tomi
Viiltola (Vocals), Marco Sneck (Keyboards), Jari Satta (Guitars), Jukka
Jokikokko (Bass) and Janne Kusmin (Drums).
"Legends
& Lores" was
recorded in various studios and mixed by a legendary Tampere-based power metal
mixer Jussi Kulomaa. Fans can hit the play button, and close their eyes to dive
into a fantasy world where might and magic rule. Featuring 10 songs, including
its soundtrack intro "The Conquest", from fast to slow tracks and the
epic 10-minute album closer "Glorious Dawn", fans are encouraged to
delve into a musical story that begins right from the start until its end. All
are flavored with a combination of nice melodies and song structures.
Keyboardist and founder Marco Sneck adds.
"It's is
pure Fantasy Metal. The album is meant to be heard from beginning to end, as
all the tracks are lyrically entwined into a chronologically advancing story.
There are heroes, elves, magical quests, and other fantasy elements to get
listeners all inspired! It is 55 minutes of adventurous heavy metal."
