Review Text
The Swedish/Norwegian melodic power metal band Saint Deamon returns with a new longplayer "League Of The Serpent" about three and a half years after their quasi-"comeback" album "Ghost". It's well known that Saint Deamon stand for high-quality sound and an individual touch (which is often hard to find in the power metal genre). Also "League Of The Serpent" clearly shows the great quality of vocal wonder Jan-Thore Grefstad, guitarist Toya Johansson, bass player Nobby Noberg (ex-Dionysus) and new drummer Alfred Fridhagen (Gaia Epicus). Tracks like the upbeat first single "At Break Of Dawn", the extremely catchy "Load Your Cannons" or the ear-pleasing melodic rocker "The Final Fight" are typical Saint Deamon compositions, in addition the band skillfully incorporates progressive nuances and makes "League Of The Serpent" an album that will be one of the genre highlights in 2023. Available from April 21 as Digipak CD and limited colored vinyl edition.
