CONCLUSION OF AN AGE

My sister keeps telling me to check out acts like Avenged Sevenfold and Trivium and I just keep refusing. I guess I should cave in and give them a chance because so many new bands are being influenced by them. Germany’s CONCLUSION OF AN AGE being one. But I have an inherent resistance to the tag modern metal. Because when I listen to this I just hear old NWOBHM bands. The way I do when I have heard a Trivium track or two. I don’t hear anything modern in that. But I have to admit that this German band aren’t too shabby. There is a quality to this that appeals to me. And I will gladly keep checking them out to see where they might be going. Anders Ekdahl
