( votes)Endless comes from Brazil, and The Truth, The Chaos, The Insanity is their cleverly titled 3rd studio release. Power Metal fans know the Brazilians take their Power Metal seriously … there’s typically a clean sound, progressive elements, talented vocalists, and the highest level of musical virtuosity. Endless lives up to all of those stereotypes in grand fashion within this new release, which was a long time coming after years of roadblocks and challenges. This six-piece band, headed up by the talents of vocalist Vitor Veiga, have delivered a solid release that fans of Angra and Hibria are bound to enjoy.
This is the first album I’ve heard from the band and I like it a lot. I guess I need to check out the previous one as well 🙂
I was really looking forward to this album. I found it to be old, tired, and very uninspired. The first track, “A New Sunrise” gives us the obligatory instrumental intro that a lot of metal bands seem to implore these days. It’s obvious on the first true track, “Code of Light” that vocalist Vitor Veiga is attempting to hit notes that his voice simply wasn’t made to do. The riff is good, and the power metal solo is some of the better guitar work out there, but the vocals simply ruin this track. This theme is repeated throughout the album; good song writing and musicianship, horrible vocals.
