Dantesco
Pagano
DANTESCO is today the most famous HEAVY METAL band hailing from the isle of Puerto Rico."Pagano" shows from the first notes an incredible change in Dantescos offering compared to the first album, with the distinctive and operatic vocals of Erico "La Bestia" taking the lead, perfectly accompanied by some of the most classic guitars you can hear in todays HEAVY METAL scene. The songs are built again on an epic and heavy metal background, reminding of classic acts such as Mercyful Fate and Candlemass but sometimes, with their complex structure, going even further back in time to the 70s, to the roots of hard rock/heavy metal. The lyrics, in Spanish, deals with historic and mythological events and figures such as Beowulf and Hanibal and the Crusades, but also with Pagan themes as the title in the end suggests.
