Killing songs: Well, every single track !!
EDGUY ! Well this name now have a huge place in the true metal scene.
Savage Poetry is nothing else than their very first album, but with
a big surprise : a total remix. You'll be able to find 2 versions,
one of them is a double CD containing both new and old version and
you'll see how scary the difference is, in 3 words : night and day.
Edguy is a fabulous band, and one of my favorite. This album is a
pure wonder of True Metal from the first song to the last. Like always
Edguy riffs, solos and chorus are amazing and it seems that Tobias
Sammet is still in the progression stage with his voice cause he sounds
even better than before (apparently it's possible). Not only the voice
if you ask me because this guy is a hell of a song writer, when you
take the original version of Savage Poetry and the new one and compare
it you ask yourself how he did it ! This album will explode your brain
cells and let them dance in the void of what's left in there ! With
no doubt about it : a candidate for album of the year (we'll see).
We can thanks band like Edguy for the True Metal revival that's for
sure. This is a buy-or-die album for all True Metal fans, but not
only, every metal fan should like the songs cause the variety of the
album is excellent, not 2 songs are alike and you can find everything
in there, and always full of strong emotions ! Two thumbs up !
