Where can I
get the CD?
Oratorio - The reality of existance |
|
When I bought The Metal Rose Collection one of the few good songs was
Shine The Light by Oratorio. So when I saw that Oratorio had released a CD
and heard some sondclips I knew about what to expect. And I'm not disappointed because this really is headbanging-stuff! My favourite, the first song, Chain Of Pain tells what follows...fast kickdrums and a lot of melody. Most songs are fast but the song Taivallinen Jerusalem (Heavenly Jerusalem) is a nice symphonic ballad that really rock (though it is in Finnish). The singer is not a normal high-pitch singer but a bit different with a more raspy voice and some growls here and there, and it works just fine. The only thing I can complain about is the guitars that could dampen the strings more often to add some bite, but it's just a small thing. This is one of the highlights of 2003 and it's hard not to headbang while having this CD in your player! |
