Honor Forth E.P. |
||||||
Cellador are a power metal band from the USA forming in 2003 as Apostate, quickly changing their name to Cellador and releasing their debut album 'Enter Deception' in 2006. 'Honor Forth' is a four song E.P. released in 2011. | ||||||
The band are building a reputation for full throttle, foot to the floor heavy metal, combining elements of the speed and power metal genres within their traditional heavy metal roots. The new E.P. opens in superb speed metal style with the title song 'Honor Forth', powering forward with phenomenal pace, the band displaying a sound similar to (Michael Kiske-era) Helloween, Running Wild and Iron Savior. A simply stunning opener, 'Honor Forth' (the song) is a relentless rampage of all out speed, power and traditional heavy metal! | ||||||
'I'm Omega' is harder rocking than 'Honor Forth' (the song), but remains immensely catchy with some superb guitar work and an impressive vocal performance. Cellador may be an American band, but their sound owes so much to the European power metal scene, the band roaring on with 'Unchained'. Highly reminiscent of British power metallers DragonForce, 'Unchained' is an eclectic mix of speed and power metal with just a little hard rock thrown in for good measure. All delivered at an exceptionally quick pace, Cellador are on fire! | ||||||
And all too soon the fire is about to end - the fourth and final song 'Conscious Defector' rocketing into sight at a hundred miles an hour! Flying along at break neck speed, 'Conscious Defector' is a great big whacking solid slab of power metal come heavy rock that will beg for you to head bang, foot stomp and raise your fists high in the air! And in a little under twenty electrifying minutes Cellador have demonstrated a huge passion and desire to deliver high octane, rocket fuelled speedy power metal. | ||||||
Overall, pace, power and speed combined with clean vocals to produce a superb collection of fast, furious, yet catchy metal songs. | ||||||
