To an
ever growing mass of Italian power metal bands we can now add Airborn, a band
from Turin that has been alive since 1996 and is now ready to release their
debut album. Borrowing elements from the old heroes of their genre such as
Heaven's Gate and Gamma Ray they will for sure make an impression on those
who can't get enough of this type of music. Unfortunately there is very
little new here and even though these guys are skilled musicians they sound
very stereotypical. Many have tried to compete with Rhapsody throughout the
years but very few have succeeded. Italian metal of today is for me
Necrodeath, Rhapsody, Luca Turilli, Cadaveria and Thee Maldoror Kollective.
"Against The World" is definitely not a bad album but it takes a lot more
than this to make a lasting impression on me. The only thing that is worth
mentioning apart from this is that the album was actually produced by Piet
Sielck together with the band. He also did a guest appearance on vocals on the
song "Wings".
