Paladin - Ascension

Vinyl LP pressing. Fast, melodic, and technical, Atlanta, GA's Paladin is on a mission to bring some European flavor to the US metal scene and beyond. The foursome blends soaring vocals, harsh rasps, catchy melodies, and fiery guitar work reminiscent of the '80s to create their own brand of thrashy power metal. Fronted by master-songwriter Taylor Washington, a stalwart of the Atlanta metal scene and touring guitarist with Arsis, Paladin's debut album, Ascension is a valiant, thundering power-metal opus.
