Stop Now – Visit their website and buy this monumental EP . The future of metal, the future of Greece - Don't stop here guys continue - During the listening of this EP I was amazed by the melodies, the riffs and vocals.  It made me want to headbang and destroy everything in the house!!!! their style – powerful – melodic and most of all Symphonic – Epical and Majectic The keyboards blend with the symphonic metal and the metallic riffs – the vocalists is absolutely perfect!! Production is excellent . what else you would expect – Labels where  the hell are you!!!!!!!! This band although is from Greece – their vocalist sounds like an international singer without the disadvantages which many Greek vocalists have in the accent – the vocalist is really perfects Backing Vocals – The backing vocals in the album ,some female symphonic vocals often followed by roaring backing vocals match perfectly with the music and the vocalist and mainly with the whole concept of the band Production: the production is the best I ever heard up to now – Orion’s Reign produced this album with attention to detail – good work guys. Now about the EP. A Professionally made recording which is almost unfaulted -  with a good production and with a booklet which contains the lyrics . the CD contains 6 songs including a bonus track which is a Christmas Noel. All song are unique with melodies which drive you crazy – I a confident that there is a kind of “Magic” in their music. The band is utilizing its instruments at its maximum blending their classical influences with powerful and melodic metal – All the songs are at the levels of PERFECTION -  1)Amidst the Battle -  Powerful introduction with a killing riff accompanying you through the songs – the riff is also supported by the keyboards which make the song excellent – 2)Darkness Comes – Perfect Drums Introduction – All the band members show what are they made for in this song – perfection in all its kingdom 3) Beyond –Eternity  - The parting – A Ballad which is brings in your mind the Medieval Times 4) Beyond Eternity – The Slaughter -  Another Highlight of the EP – Nice Introduction – this song reveals the quality of the vocalist –  After the 2nd minute the song changes rhythum completely becomes even more melodic and powerful - !! 5) Outro – VEHEMENTS NOX NOCTIS -  an unforgettable outro – with horses running on the background – EPICAL and SYMPHONIC -  this songs shows the composing abilities of the band –  the composer of this song can easily compose songs for epical movies – !!!! 6) Noel – An interesting view of Christmas Noel !!  Orion’s Reign are the best thing which came into this website up to now and also in my collection – I own several thousands of albums of well known bands – demos and many more – this band really ranks top in my list – they have what it takes to become on of the best metal bands in this world . I hope they will find a proper record label which will distribute their music correctly. Guys You are the Future of European metal!!!
