Following the success of the blazing debut album Emperor Rising, Return Of The Heralds delivers yet more fast melodic tunes living and prospering in the realm of traditional power-speed metal. The new Krilloan record is once again a heartfelt homage to the good ol' times of classic heavy metal and sword & sorcery entertainment that shaped them. Epic and fierce battle hymns about Conan the Barbarian, Elric of Melniboné, Warhammer 40.000 and those never-ending days spent in a world beyond our own: this is the conceptual foundation of the Swedish band led by guitarist Klas Holmgren, with a clear focus on a well-crafted and always well-balanced songwriting as well. One thing is for certain: you will never be bored listening to a Krilloan album!
