Gates of Winter - Lux Aeterna (8.5/10) metal Review

I was a bit late for adding this review (Lux Aeterna) but I finally found the time to listen to this really interesting album from the Canadian band called Gates of Winter. The band plays Symphonic metal with progressive metal influences and some epic metal characteristics, !!!!, with very nice guitar riffs, and a great vocalist. Gates of winter also include a female vocalist with backing vocals and in some cases leading the vocals. Also the effects used in many of the songs are very good and serve their purpose. The vocalist is excellent and deserves a credit for his performance, in both clean and death vocals!! They blend the two types of vocals successfully in the songs. Another positive of this album is its artwork. Production could have been better however for a self finance album was satisfactory A disadvantage of them is the way the keyboards sound, I believe the band should try and improve the sound (effect) of the keyboards not the playing. Also my compliments to the bass player who really kicks us!! especially on the Gates of Winter Song which is a masterpiece The album contains 9 songs including a trilogy called Burning Kingdom which is also the highlight of this album, melodic, epic, symphonic, including female lead vocals and a lead guitar which surprised me positively!! The other highlight of the album is the song gates of winter Well if you are into symphonic metal and like bands such as symphony – X and other progressive and symphonic metal bands then you should check the Gates of Winter and their album Lux Aeterna. I am confident that the sound, the melodies, the vocals, the Guitars, riffs and the effects of this album will satisfy you Do your selves a favor and buy the album you support a great band and you add a great album to your collection. My only wish to the band is to quickly find a label to help them grow and produce even more albums!! Any labels reading thei check them out. I believe those guys can do amazing stuff with the proper label, support (8.5/10)

Interesting !!
