HOPELEZZ
”Stories Of a War Long Forgotten”
(Massacre Records)
Battle Helm Rating
This is German HOPELEZZ third album but the first I hear by them. This is melodic death metal. What I miss in modern metal is the guitar solos. For someone that is brought up with guitar heroes I really miss out on the cool solos. But not on this one. Here they are. And that is a major plus in my book. Other than that you get the dual vocals, beauty and beast style. It just hit me, in a way this is a continuation of the old Gothenburg sound. That is why I find this highly likeable. Now it all dawned on me. This is an album that kinda crept up on me and now we are cuddling away like mad. Anders Ekdahl
