Ok, So i did a review, posted a video and held a contest for the band The Sword and their cd Age Of Winters. I asked Dale, the winner of the CD what he thought of the CD and to do a guest review for me. This is what he wrote:
Hello my name is Dale Schmucker. I am here to do a review of the band The Sword and their cd, Age Of Winters. This is a 9 track 43 min cd. 1st let me say this is my 1st written review ever. I don’t work for any radio station or music mag. I just enjoy music in general.
A week ago I received The Sword cd Age Of Winters. Honestly I have never heard of them, but when I put the cd in I was pleasantly surprised. They are a mix between old Black Sabbath and Led Zeppelin. The 1st track is a strong instrumental guitar riff called Celestial Crown. This woke my ass up. Then It goes into Barael’s Blade. This song will kick you in the head. The entire cd is heavy guitar driven’. Then song #8 March of the Gol is a 8 part instrumental. This song is them sitting around just jammin. I think you will enjoy this song.
The only disappointing thing about this cd is the vocals. The vocals are weak and sometimes even hard to hear. It sound like he is trying to sing under water. Harmonies would also help on some of the songs.
Over all If you like old Black Sabbath and Led Zeppelin you will enjoy this cd. I would give this cd a 4 out of 5. Work on the vocals and this would be a classic album!!!
-Dale Schmucker
While Dale listed a few songs, my favorites as it seems are most peoples, are Freya and iron Swan. I like this band, Keep it simple, keep it metal. Thanks, Dale for the review and I’m glad your enjoying The Sword.
I wanted to do more on this band, like an interview, but their PR rep has yet to get back to me.
