Christian Metal, Metal in the style of Jag Panzer with Guitar leads in the style of Yngwie and Uli Roth & Soaring vocals infl.by Bruce Dickenson.Classic power metal with Bruce Dickenson style vocals.Great guitar leads and good song structures. Lyrics are better on this than on Trangressor. Top notch stuff! I love United at the Front.http://www.septerband.com/.Yes I know, this album is already available for three years now, but it’s kinda tough to find it. The Christian rock scene is very rich, but it’s rather unusual to read about these bands in the so-called ‘regular’ metal magazines. Listening to the eight songs on this album though, it would be a shame to leave this for what it is, and enjoy it on my own. Songs like “Transgressor” and “Blood And Dishonor” are rough diamonds, and a real must for fans of JAG PANZER or WATCHTOWER. Great instrumental parts with many speed changes and A Good Vocalist, who screams his lungs out. SEPTER consists of Hawk On Guitar, Paul Dailey on guitar, Kevin Truell on Vocals, Jeff Kmiec on Drums and Matt Weaver on Bass. “You Better Believe” is a very balladesque song, but with “Tonight” they hit the nail right on the head again. While “Vesuvious” is another hot and steaming tune, as the title predicts already. Add to this the mighty powerful vocals, which makes it to another highlight. The only disappointment is that the album only lasts for about thirty-five minutes. But these were thirty-five heavenly minutes, if I may say so. “The God Key” is the title of the newest release by this band, and I am definitely going to check that one out as well, because after listening to “Transgressor”, I really want to hear more. “Slipping Away” and “Last Days” close this marvellous CD, which deserves to be reviewed in this section, even three years after its original release. Is it that good? Better judge for yourself!(http://www.holymetalrob.com/)
