I have just received the promo and it blew me away!!!!!!!!!

Veronica has been called the female Dio and she's capable of anything from melodic to aggressive, a fairly low voice and metal ALL the way!! Guitarist Pete is quite a talent too!! So it's kinda Dio meets Nevermore meets Savatage meets Within Another
Gonna be a 5/5 here on MP!!
