Anyone Heard Of Epiclore?

Epiclore

My friend told me about these guys months back and I've only just now gotten a hold on their stuff. I must say I'm very impressed.

Interesting power/progressive metal act. Their singer's unusual style of laid-back midrange singing actually compliments the music very well. Everything is very tastefully written and guitar wankery levels are at an absolute minimum.

I'm normally not a huge fan of power metal stuff, but these guys are actually pretty cool. A few songs miss the mark, but a lot of their stuff is really catchy. And they've put it all up on their site for free download. That alone is reason enough to give these guys a listen.

The only creative accounting I have seen is Bush's plan to balance the budget by 2015.
Unless, of course, he plans on skyrocketing the debt at such a rate to approach infinity on an
asymptote, causing a giant budget calculator divide by zero error that reboots the country.

Your will to be and your spirit can both be shattered and your want to be you can be taken
away, but your true self can NEVER die and can NEVER be drained from your body.

Wow, there's some reasonably good stuff on there. And it's free. Cool, thanks for the tip!

My only real complaint is that the guitar tone is really, really, REALLY lifeless.

EDIT: Well, it's only really bad in the first few songs in that player. It gets better later on.

I'd have to agree there, and I'm no tone expert.

And you're welcome.
