Ancient Egypt, by way of Lübeck, Schleswig-Holstein in Germany, is what you'll find on Aeon Gods' second album, Reborn to Light. They play a standard, melodic style of power metal with the requisite hooks in all the choruses, smooth guitar melodies, supporting keys and enough double-kick drums to keep your heart rate up. It's been told before, but the birth of the gods in the Egyptian pantheon is suitably fantastic for a power metal band, even if they call Ra, the god of the sun, "Re" for some reason. Artistic license, I guess. Regardless, all the notes are in the right places and the sound is excellent. The songwriting is definitely what you'd call "safe," taking almost no chances, but the album is enjoyable even if it doesn't do anything different from what you've heard before. Countrymen Mob Rules is probably the closest to Aeon Gods sound, though if you also enjoy Stratovarius, Hammerfall and the like, you should find something to like on Reborn to Light. |
