Viron- cool old school power metal

EpicMetalFan30 · **Posted:** Wed Jul 05, 2006 2:44 am

saw someone mention these guys in the blabbermouth posts for cellador. Got to searching and downloading the For her Majesty song. I liked it, i think some of you here might as well. It feels metal thru and thru no gimmicks here. The song was a 2004 recording and apparantly they have a debut that has just been released so im expecting even more improvement. This could be intersting for those interested..lol

Wow nice stuff. And props to MetalNESS for reviving the powermetal forum. Today alone I learned about Arthemis, Arwen and now these blokes.

I have the Viron CD but have only given it a few spins... sounds very solid.

Fellow colleague Kit has reviewed it and I know it's his #1 for the year... check it out, as it's probably one of the few reviews in existence. :wink:

Seriously. Guys this cd is really cool. :shock:
Winds of Valhalla is the Manowar song we have been waiting for. A nice Hammett type lead (when Metallica was still kick ass). Great Melodic Power/Gritty vocals in the vein of Lost Horizon/Manowar. This album simply rocks. I know with the weak name, poor album cover, and small label, this thing is going to get lost in the shuffle. YOU Guys really, really need to check this out!

Holy Terror! Where are you. I know you wold allow this thing to fall in the realm of letting the new but keeping with what got us here. This is a classic album that ooozes "metal" with every note.

No doubt this has to be labeled "true"

Dont let this thing pass in the wind peeps :twisted:

Sonig Age material is difficult to find.

This easily scores a 90 rating IMO. IF any of you reviewers get hold of this, must review it!

Yeah, noticed them since they were announced on Sonic Age Records site. Sounds quite good, but hard to make such bold statements from just 2-3 songs. But I'd had to order this (and all the other SAR releases) from Germany to get it at a reasonable price :(

No, I don't hear any similarities. Actually I can't recall anyone to compare him to

Check the other song, Blow The Fuse, too! It's really good :twisted:

Checking out their Myspace and this sounds pretty awesome. Myspace really is a gold mine for finding bands.
