FC Metal Recordings signs DarkSun

[FC Metal]

FC METAL RECORDINGS is pleased to announce as its inaugural signing the exceptional heavy metal band from Asturias, Spain, DARKSUN. In September 2007, FC Metal will be releasing "The Dark Side," an English version of DARKSUN's second album, "El Lado Oscuro." "The Dark Side" will be their first album sung in English, as their first 2 highly acclaimed releases -- "El Legado" and "El Lado Oscuro" -- were sung in their native Spanish tongue.

"The Dark Side" was mixed by Dennis Ward (Angra, Silent Force, Adagio, Symphorce), with the vocals produced by Lars Ratz (Metalium). The album features guest singer Peavy Wagner of RAGE on the song "Prisoners Of Fate." (DARKSUN also collaborated with RAGE on their "Speak Of The Dead" album, creating a Spanish version of the song "Full Moon" entitled "La Luna Reine," which appeared as a bonus track).

With influences including BLIND GUARDIAN, ANGRA, and HELLOWEEN, DARKSUN have written an album in "The Dark Side" that the aforementioned heavy metal legends would be proud to call their own. The album will feature 11 tracks, including "Slaves Of Fear," "Echoes Of The Past," and "Confrontation."

These guys really don't have anything unique about them. Generic keyboards, generic riffs, bland vox. This is based off of the one song on that myspace page, but seriously - is that the best these guys can offer? Would those aforementioned bands REALLY be "proud to call Darksun their own"?
