Krossfire Learning To Fly

2012, Power Metal from Bulgaria: Quite something, that has some obscurity. After all, the small country in eastern Europe isn't well known for a lot of Metal-bands. A band, that comes from there, are the 2001 founded Krossfire. They have released their debut album LEARNING TO FLY finally. Songs like the pounding opener ,,War Machine" and the doublebass-dominated title track won't disappoint any fan of progressive but also melody balanced Euro-Power Metal. The bombastic production is almost on the same level like the 90s-albums of Blind Guardian. Both orchestral intros ,,Visions" and ,,Icaria" own a similar epic touch like monumental Manowar-prologues.
