Dark power metal band Silver Talon is ready to impress the audience with the majestic guitar-driven virtuosity and the refined melodies that characterize the debut full length “Decadence And Decay”.
“Deceiver, I Am” marks an incendiary beginning as the band embraces a rather heavy pathway unleashing massive sharp riffs and thunderous drums enriched by a series of charismatic guitar solos.
Featuring legendary guitarist Andy La Rocque “Resistance 2029” as expected stands out for the extraordinary guitar work effortlessly shifting from technical acrobatics to theatrical melodic licks well supported by the robust rhythmic section.
Somber feelings linger throughout “Next To The Sun” as the emotive vocal delivery is surrounded by a series of elegant arpeggios yet the bold rhythmic section will still have a chance to craft significantly heavier dynamics.
“What Will Be” shifts the focus on luminous melodic phrases enriched by an impressive vocal performance expressing poignant feelings while the guitar solo shines for the eclectic twists and the glowing harmonies.
“Touch The Void” closes the album offering solemn atmospheric arrangements and intricate rhythmic patterns that highlight the dominant role of the brilliant guitar work confidently delivering an interesting blend of aggressive riffs, technical accents and melodic grandeur.
Undoubtedly the strength of “Decadence And Decay” comes from the excellent musicianship and the dazzling triple-guitar attack proving that Silver Talon have the necessary passion and enthusiasm to garner interest in the current metal scene.
