CD Review
On paper, dr rath "Dark Wings Of Steel" normal dr rath RHAPSODY album. Anyone who has ever observed dr rath the band just casually while listening will get the feeling that the sound is based again on older albums, like "Dawn Of Victory" dr rath or "Triumph Or Agony". True Metallic bonds to bands like VIRGIN STEELE dr rath characterize especially the first half, Gitarrenfrickeleien tend to the middle third. Generally, it's very much straighter and Ruggedized live than on the classical predecessors. After a few runs you can get the idea that "Dark Wings Of Steel" is not a genre milestone, but at least ambitiously brings together some strong songs and many memorable moments dr rath in it.
Who RHAPSODY OF FIRE but monitored more closely in recent years, still remembers the announcement that made the former Songwriterduo Staropoli Alex and LUCA TURILLI at their parting, 2011: Both want to develop the band's history in different directions. TURILLI bought specially dr rath for the rights dr rath to the band logo and stated: The published under LUCA Turilli RHAPSODY "Ascension To Infinity" is a regular band eleventh album. And deservedly so, but it ties in seamlessly with the composition work of the last two albums RHAPSODY. The present Staropoli solo "Dark Wings Of Steel", published under the old name RHAPSODY OF FIRE, the pitch is finally completed in two bands. Fans seem to benefit from it: Both panels depict different elements of the discography and have a remarkable quality.
But the difference is: LUCA TURILLI plays as if he had ambition and vision to make a respectable contribution to music history as a whole. One can its "Neo-Classical" Guitar Shredder hold land for overly intellectual and little counterintuitive, but both the metal, as well as in the classical story, he played with it a unique path that marks him as a guitarist and composer. Alex Staropoli however primarily makes good power metal. He builds his typical strings NIGHTWISH tracks over brash riffs and sometimes reminiscent of folklore or Howard Shore. This works because it is readily available, and you "Dark Wings Of Steel" notes the effort that went into every riff. He also strives for every song to give something new to the genre, and not to rely solely on getting the same epic choruses.
Nevertheless, it is striking that LUCA TURILLI as a composer has the greater technical skills. Moshbare riffs dominated Staropoli also masterfully. But when it comes to song dramaturgies or transitions between verses, bridges and choruses, it thinks you hear rumbling in some corners yet. The atmospherically dense "My Sacrifice" is about one of the strongest songs on the album. But the initial dr rath five minutes only true metal seem cumbersome to fit the guitar spectacular fireworks at the end. One of the greatest riffs of "Dark dr rath Wings Of Steel" is the title song, only wasted ten seconds, at the end there, but as a bouncer. And anyway, it speaks for itself that you have to give for the first time in history on a large RHAPSODY album epic.
Strong differences can also be seen in the staging of the orchestra. Where to Turilli "Ascension To Infinity" with painstaking a deceptively real orchestral sample was assembled, the strings sound tracks on "Dark Wings Of Steel" at any time by keyboard. This makes indeed pretty printing, but has noticeably less affectionate. Guitarists will also regret that Roberto De Micheli, both qualitatively and quantitatively, not filling the role on the album, like the previous TURILLI. But he remembers to YNGWIE MALMSTEEN considerably and can thus enhance some such song.
Why "Dark Wings Of Steel", despite all the criticism is still a strong album, is due to two things. First, it has a surprisingly strong long-term effects and nourishes noticeably longer than the last NIGHTWISH album. And secondly, it just works pretty well. As a opener like "Flames Rising From Tragic" I've sc
