Fer De Lance
Fires On The Mountainside
The second album of Chicago's epic heavy metal phalanx, Fer De Lance, is here! The band's name translates to spearhead, thus expect to be pierced by the archaic prowess of these musicians who have proven before to be a most wonderful example of the genres most mystical corner. Combining the melodic, folky, and ancient music of a far-gone time with the heavy metal magic of bands like Atlantean Kodex, Rainbow/Dio, Rotting Christ, and others. Although many might go the route of trying to attain a rawer sound, these warriors of the present opt to capture a superb and clear production that allows their multi-faceted musical triumphs to be truly appreciated in depth. From the swaying riffs and harmonies to the mind-bending guitar solos and potent vocal delivery, Fer de Lance calls forth vast realms of myth and the shades of ancient heroes, illuminated by the fires of molten metal.
