BURNING – NIGHTMARES – cd – Tonefloat – H’ART Musik-Vertrieb GmbH

The freaks in Holland are keeping the flame and passion for Metal Music on highest illumination. Also by iconic encounters like the Very Eavy Festival! The mastermind of it – Hugo Koch is also the front-shouter of BURNING and they have their first full length cd on release entitled “Nightmares”. Turn your amplifiers on highest level as a glorious loud-blast and be ready to bang your head… If you play it by the midnite hour it is also predestined to surprise your beloved neighbors; they will kiss your ass and love you forever, haha…

“Razors and Reasons” as opener is enchanting immediately by its dynamite power-metal, with powerful vocals by Hugo and melodic metal-axe duels by the two virtuosos Johnny Karst and Rene Knegt. By the conclusive “Trials Of 1613” all devotees of doom-metal will be passionate. By the middle jam the rhythm-section of power-drummer Jan Engelkes and bassist Andy Haandrikman provide hell of a groove. “Nightmares” as title track is a divine speed-metal track, definitely a neck-breaker of which you will enjoy the pleasure of pain. The gitarrero-jam by “No Remorse” combined with the lowtone-rhythms of bass and drums are really hooky. “Stuck” is a melodic metal-orgy with a speedy buckshot, ideal for any conglomeration-party of metal-heads. “Anthem For the Lost Souls” is definitely the highlight of “NIGHTMARES”, with its balladesque metal-intro, the consecutive energetic melodies to rise a thunderous metallic storm and the doomy metal-middle-jam where maestro Koch is continuing by chant the legacy of metal-god Ronnie James Dio and his bandmates the one of Heaven And Hell. Meditative melodies conclude this extravagant opus-song, the master of the pandemoinium will definitely choose it as his new favorite. The bonus track “Something Is Lurking In The Dark” is the grand-final metal-hymn to make your day even brighter at whatever time and wherever you are on the highway, at work or for your evening pleasure.

By the funereal day when the old legendary metal-bands do not exist anymore alive and kickin’ you do not need to have “Nighmares”, as there will be the new generation of bands continuing the legacy and there will be BURNING!
