Metalism presents HOLY DRAGONS - a Power-Speed Metal band, that combines the savage power of True Power Metal with catchy melodies, powerful riffs with swift solos, wisdom of the East and energy of the West. No wonder, the only place where dragons can exist is a place far away from the center of civilisation. So, the band appeared in Kazakhstan, the place where the huge mountain chain of Tien-Shan separates the borders of China from the territory of the former Soviet Union. HOLY DRAGONS are the only True Number One Heavy Metal Warriors on this vast territory, which comprises all the Central Asian countries almost equal in their size to the territory of the USA.
Their style is based on the purest guitar-oriented Power Metal, having its roots in the German Heavy Metal and such great albums as "Painkiller" and "Walls of Jericho". It's not at all like some modern fashionable power metal bands, which prefer to hide their guitar parts under the sound of keyboards. You'll not find this in HOLY DRAGONS. If you miss the real guitar sound, as in the 80-ties, this album is for you.
"Judgement Day" contains 12 tracks that will keep you in the wonderful world of sword and magic, carry you away beyond the borders of your imagination. Guitar work of the band reminds of such great British guitar duets like Tipton-Downing or Murray-Smith and mad guitar solos make a real challenge for the contemporary guitar world. The powerful voice of Holger Komaroff, sometimes reminding Dio, sometimes snarling aggressively or flying into the stratosphere is backed by the mighty steam hammer of the rhythm section. Acoustic guitars are skilfully used in the whole musical picture of the album.
The ancient wisdom of the East together with the speed and energy of the West make a wonderful and original combination.
Feel the magic and power of Holy Dragons, the mighty newcomers, capable to challenge and crush the world's metal hierarchy.
So, if you think that Heavy Metal is Forever, this album is for you!
