THE BEAST

Royal Hunt - Reviewed In Flight Of Pegasus ! Check it out here at this link: http://www.flightofpegasus.gr/heavy_metal/

If you have been a listener of the great band for a long time, you might think so: in this new album there is something creeping that can trap the profile of its creators. Not that their work is not of the expected level, there are compositions and orchestrations characteristic of the style of those who can not be ignored. They are capable, they show excellent self-sufficiency, but they seem to be limited to what they can achieve on their own. With all the difficulty one can articulate such a thing towards these cultured musicians, they probably needed a renewal and collaborations with a modern approach. It is not so much a matter of production as of approach, of a willingness to make their talent evident, at a time when mechanistic, cheap, grandiose imitations of classicism are gaining ground. Mats Leven, Mark Boals, Henrik Brockmann, Kenny Lubcke, Alexandra Andersen, all of them met the requirements of the material and their reputation guarantees its quality. - Flight Of Pegasus
