Adamantra (Progressive Power Metal)

[AngraRULES]

Another band I just stumbled upon by accident. Adamantra, from Finland. Their debut album "Revival" came out earlier this year (May, I believe). I think a lot of people in this forum will dig this band! Fans of Circus Maximus and Seventh Wonder, beware!

IIRC they put out an EP a few years ago. SkiBumMSP told me about these folks a while back. A very good listen IMHO

 

[Wherewolf]

yes, great band. I bought the cd directly from their label.

 

[Cheiron]

Pretty good AOM.

This is pretty damn good. I don't know why, but I still don't get Circus Maximus. They bore the living hell out of me, yet I like bands like PM, Seventh Wonder, Illusion Suite and now this band. Go figure.

That's interesting. Not gonna say I find it weird, but interesting nonetheless. Have you heard the entire Isolate album by CM? I can't see someone not liking that disc!

OK, I WILL be the one to say it: THAT'S WEIRD! Just plain WEIRD!!! :zombie:

LOL! I do like this sample, and CM / Illusion Suite are pretty good comparisons. I really like seeing this particular genre hybrid continue to grow, as I think it combines my favorite aspects of all the genres we discuss on this board. (Well, excluding perhaps the Pagan-Viking-Neo-Goth-Death-Core stuff.)

I've listened to about 5 or 6 full songs from them before progpower this past year and just couldn't get into them and their live performance bored me. It's weird. I know I should like them, but I just can't. To each his own I suppose.

Back to the band at hand though. Does anyone know where to get this cd? The only place I can find it is on Record Shop X.

I think we all have bands like this; bands that we should love, but for whatever reason, just don't click for us.
