OCULUS EX INFERNI / SET THE WORLD ON FIRE (THE LIE OF LIES)

Song: Oculus Ex Inferni / Set The World On Fire (The Lie Of Lies)

Artist: Symphony X

Here you have one the most forceful bands in the progressive metal sphere and makers of a landmark album from my understanding.

Symphony X is an American band showcasing both guitar mastery and powerful singing. The outcome is vertiginous songs and melodies.

Paradise Lost is a record named after the Milton's book in which we may also find the namesake song inspired by the Milton's work.

The track I want you to listen to is introduced by a mighty intro. This suite is an expression of determination to vengeance.

Just a word of advice, keeping on listening to the whole disc taking advantage of the increasing speed fueled by this song.

Fly with us!

BATTLE TO THE LAST

Song: Battle To The Last Artist: DARKNESS This month I want to dust off the music of Darkness .  Some may say there are many bands with that name, but for me, there's only one Darkness. For those who are not familiar with the band, they became, in the late 80s, representative of what we could now call the purest old-school German Thrash style .  Their first two albums are cult items which I was lucky enough to have in my hands. Their records feature underground-drawn artwork that matches their vision of a world in chaos.  What I like most about this band is their raw sound.

YOU CAN'T KILL ROCK AND ROLL

Song: You Can't Kill Rock and Roll Artist: OZZY OSBOURNE This month I want to pay my respects to a real artist who passed away last month. Ozzy Osbourne will always be part of the history of Heavy Metal as one of the major names in the genre. And I'm not going to speak about him beyond his records and musical performance. I am not interested in the celebrity. There are enough people adoring his life off stage, and this is a blog about music. So, no more tickets for the circus. I remember, as a teenager back in the early eighties, when I first listened to the album Sabbath Bloody Sabbath , knowing little about him and his band, Black Sabbath . They were one of the big names pushing Heavy Metal into a golden era, as an evolution of 70s Hard Rock . And this is the true thing. Ozzy Osbourne was a real icebreaker, breaking through the righteous. And he did it with a priceless legacy, his voice. Thus, Ozzy is one of the best singers in the history of Rock. His voice was unmistakabl...

WINTER SKIES

Song: Winter Skies Artist: STRATOVARIUS  This month the band I want to talk about is one of the major names in European heavy metal . Forty years treading the boards is enough time to assert that this Finnish combo has reached a place among the gods of  Power Metal with a career full of progressive and melodic masterpieces .  Their creativity is in constant evolution and full of classical nuances that draw labyrinthine compositions and transport us to musical heavens.  Here I bring you a ballad in the shape of northern sky . A starred vault teemming with millions of beatiful musical notes.  Just click below to set off on the journey. https://open.spotify.com/track/5y75A9c3hNFGuYn01nMCBw?si=XqePc4S2SDif1BL7yXBv5g
