Adam Lounsbery Really digging this one after a few listens. The first time I heard it I liked everything except the vocals, which often seem off-key and a little too high in the mix. After a second whirl I warmed up to them. They sound like a passionate call from a warrior in the heat of battle. The epic themes and the very stripped down production and simple but heavy riffs are a great combination. Favorite track: Forgotten Minion.

Sojourner Few terms have recently been more overstretched or diluted than 'epic metal', a description now applied to every cheesy seven-minute song about Vikings. Ten years after its release, 'Summon the Stone Throwers' still defies such conventions and outstands by its archaic, unique sound. If your vision of epic metal sounds like the clash of swords among prehistoric ruins rather than wizards playing keyboards, this is the album for you! Favorite track: Summon the Stone Throwers.

thijs3010 Really damn epic. Can't believe how underrated these guys are. The vocals seem to be misunderstood by a lot of people. In the mood of the album, their storytelling sound is only positive. Favorite track: Bow Before the Oligarchy.

Dream Quest Ends

So I can't leave a long enough review to say everything I want. But I will say this, I love this EP. It's a great little follow up to times, and has just enough of a dynamic shift in sound to prove that Smoulder isn't a one trick pony with their first album's formula. This one really plays up the 70s prog aspects (DUST and Manilla Road influences definitely shine through even harder here). It's still Smoulder, don't get me wrong. Just a different side in some ways, all of which are good. playfulpooka

This... THIS is how you revive classic and traditional metal from the 80s while making it your own. I could rant and rave for a mini novel's worth of words about why this album is just... impossibility good. I've had to retract so much because of how long winded I got. Please just give it a shot if it's within the subgenres you like. playfulpooka
