I have said it before and I am saying it again. There are a lot of hidden jewels in the metal industry, a lost of bands that nobody has heard up to now. many of them deserve a place in your collection and in your playlist.  Chimaera are one of those bands.  This is the first time I came up to this band from Germany. This is their are fist production under a label (hail Pure Steel Records). They have produced before that 2 self – production albums. Their music and style belongs to the areas of power metal. a good point we liked about the album and chimaera is their artwork (cover) designed by Timo Wurz. The album contains 11 songs and has a very interesting cover art design. The album was recorded in the Erzschlag studios in A  Those 6 guys from Dusseldorf with their album Rebirth are throwing oil in the fire !!! the band has set its expectations high from their self-released  and expensive  digipack  debut “ Myths and Legends”. The band tried to produce a better album that Myths and Legends and it seems they have achieved that  Some of the elements of the album are the following: firstly  the variable song writing, all the composition are different and creative. The songs are filled to their maximum with melodies riffs and Guitar Solos. The Vocalist has a great voice which connects perfectly with the music.. Another point is the addition of keyboards in the songs  Highlights. The best songs of the album are the Dragons Witch, Knights of the Storms , Ride Fast, and the  interesting Chimaeras Rebirth (cool Intro there witch very good supporting vocals with screams. Melodies and keyboard following the song.)  For those of you who liked to be called a true metal fan this is a must in your collection!!! Buy the album support a great band and a great label
