IRON SAVIOR - Rise of the Hero

[Purveyor Of Evil]

I love this band. Always consistent and this new album is very good. I really wish they could make a Progpower return.

[MYSTIC1]

Great band. New disc is good but not quite as good as The Landing imo.

What he said.

 

[TENTH DREAMER DECEIVER]

Probably just cherry pick songs from the new one. The Landing had a few stellar songs but not a whole album's worth.

 

[Fire breath]

Disagree. Far better than The Landing.

Just got my copy. It appears there were hidden tracks on it. "Neon Knights", "Electric Eye" and "Livin' After Midnight".

Anyone else? Is there a version I was not aware of? I have the AFM release.

They're not on my copy

 

[Clark Griswold]

Nevermind....got the Mexican Import.

 

[mëtålspëd]

Doesn't sound legit... those covers were from 3 older IS releases.

 

[Justin G]

It's not unusual. Scarecrow (I assume it's them) licenses the titles for that area and usually has some kind of extra to tack on.

 

[Clark Griswold]

It is distributed by Scarecrow. They are legit. I thought I clicked the Japanese import. Boy...I was wrong.

 

[modernwizardry]

This album completely blew me away. Best power metal album of the year for me. The first 6-7 songs are pure gold. THUNDER FROM THE MOUNTAIN!

 

[Clark Griswold]

Iron Savior are the AC/DC of Power Metal. The recipe hasn't changed....and you know what you're getting.

I agree. I am two spins in and I am thoroughly enjoying it. I'm digging "Dragon King". Has a very "Stranger in a Strange Land" vibe to it.

 

[KingsGene]

I must admit upon first listen that their cover of the Mando Diao song "Dance With Somebody" threw me for a loop. I just didn't expect to hear Piet snarling about dancing...melodically anyway.
