Elenium - Caught in a Wheel (9/10)
 Progressive – Power metal with a Melodic touch. Well metal from Finland had always impressed me and Elenium was no exception.  This very good album ( Caught in a Wheel)  creates a positive view from the moment you press play. Not only this band play very good metal but also the production on this album was excellent. Elenium band is here to stay and I am sure in the future is very promising for them. Some people called the music Elenium play death metal but I believe the only thing that relates death metal with them is the vocals, rest are progressive – power metal with a melodic touch!!!     This is the second full length album from Elenium and the album is called caught in a wheel . even though  It took them a while to release it (from what I read) but when they did im sure the label under which was released must be very happy   The album contains  9 songs, and all are close to perfection, very well played with attention to details and  excellent production. All instruments are played very well and the production did a very good job into making sure that the instruments get what they deserve. The album comes with  a very good booklet which is another plus for the band, for example in the song Challenger the Bass is kicking Ass, the keyboards are a positive surprise in most of the songs,  very nice effects in the song escalator , and who can forget the very good riffs and solos throughout  the album   I will not comment even more, this is an excellent album, I call the style Elenium play progressive – power metal with a melodic touch. Excellent musicians, excellent album, do your selves a favor and buy the album , not only you will add a metal “jewel” to your collection but you also support a great and promising band!!! Elenium!! Well done (9/10)
