Mausoleum Gate unleash their third album of cult heavy metal, inspired by the obscure gems of the 80s and beyond. A trip to other realms and ancient times with a mystical feeling throughout...
From the obscure synths to the soaring guitars and marching drums; one can feel an authentic heavy metal record and this glistening gem will certainly stand out as soon as you hit play as just that. Balancing melodics, atmosphere and engaging songwriting to ensure every second is interesting and full of texture; it is clear that since 2008 the band has been refining and developing their sound. One could draw comparisons to all sorts of bands from Dark Star, Saracen, Dark Quarterer and Quartz to Angel Witch or even Magnum. Whatever your poison, if you love magical heavy metal with a rocking pace and enchanting progressions; this is perfect for you. The riffing and lead work is amazing while the vocals have that aura that legends like Mark Shelton left as their legacy, with a wizard-like storytelling ability. The drumming is busy and varied to suit the more diverse pace of the record and everything fits together seamlessly. Mixing a record like this to achieve such a warm sound is no small feat but keyboardist Wicked Ischanius has absolutely nailed the sound. Collin Jordan's mastering further highlights the dynamic and carefully layered sounds to add one more step of life to the sound.
