Top-notch sobbing male vocals matched by strong anthemic female vocals belted out like Lullacry, Heart, and Drain STH. The guitars chug hard but melodically.
If you like your Blind Guardian-esque metal without the swooping highs and lows and feats of derring-do, then look to the cheeky audacity of Savage Circus.
Everything is perfect: The chord progressions, the meaty beats, the singalong vocal phrasings, the flashy-when-needed guitar work, and the heavenly hooks.
