Adamantra - For Ever (CD single)
Tunerail Records

file under Prog / Sympho metal

Winston: Well, the guys of Adamantra leave no room for imagination to show their style of music. The kind of metal that Blind Guardian and Rhapsody Of Fire also serve you; lots of guitars, lots of keyboards, choirs and theatrical vocals. I think that you can either do this really well or really bad and Adamantra can check themselves in to the first category. ‘For Ever’ is just a single with three songs and one song as a radio edit so the real test to see if they can do a whole album still stands. I think it will be no problem, the creativity and energy level is very high.

They race over their fretboards, drums, keyboard and sometimes it gets too bombastic even. I can see this band appearing on festivals in the next European festivalseason or as second support act that you miss in a venue like 013 (Tilburg) because they start at half past six. Keep it up guys, you will get there!
