From Metal to Infinity:
Burning Shadows is inspired by bands like for example Iced Earth and Metal Church but they’re adding their own epic touch to it and that’s good because we’re not waiting for another clone. Burning Shadows is a very good US Metal band and worked hard to make this style’s typical elements recognizable. “Haunter Of The Dark”, the best track to me, is a typical example for what I am trying to say. The song is full of awesome and sharp riffs, talented and technical drums, great vocal lines, fast guitar solos, a cold shivering and dark atmospheric middle part.
“Whisper Suffering” proves why Burning Shadows contains very good musicians. The intro by a piano part and cold shivering slow guitar pieces are impressive. Tom Davy easily sings along with his wide ranged voice and gives this emotional track the right touch. Once more you’ll hear good musical performances.
“Oathbreaker” is really worth checking out if you’re into US Metal and the more Epic kind of Metal. This is another band which deserves attention although I suppose they’re doomed to stay in the underground forever. But that doesn’t mean a thing because mostly the best Metal comes from beyond that surface although 2010 is exceptional in the other way. Nevertheless Burning Shadows brings a remarkable EP.
