White Skull's
TALES FROM THE NORTH is one of my favourite power metal albums, but their following two releases, while good, have been a bit of a comedown. And this, their second with raspy (to put it mildly) vocalist Gus Gabarro doesn't really buck the trend. Again, it's quite good, and offers promises early with the likes of the catchy "Top Secret" and "The Skulls", but it all becomes a bit samey and uninspiring after a while, and it wasn't long before Gabarro had me wishing for Federica De Boni, until I reminded myself that she wasn't that great either.
But no matter who is at the microphone, come ooonnn, White Skull, recapture your best.
