The German Brainstorm is by now a rather old metal band but
even though they have been alive since 1989 their debut cd "Hungry" wasn't
released until 1997. Despite this fact they have become a very interesting
band with a personal sound. The new album features a new vocalist, Andy B.
Franck, formerly the frontman of Symphorce, and it is also the first album on
their new label Metal Blade. The addition of Franck on vocals seems to have
been a real good move because the vocals on "Metus Mortis" are some of the
best I've heard in a long while and should make many bands jealous. The music
is not quite as impressive although these guys clearly know what they are
doing. More than ten years of hard work and practice finally pays off for
these German metallers because this is a very good album. If you like
power/heavy metal in the heavier league then this would be for you. They
remind me slightly of Grave Digger and it is no coincidence that they will be
heading out on a European tour together in January
2002.
