Farewell http://www.myspace.com/divinefireofficial (http://www.myspace.com/divinefireofficial Christian Rivel - Vocals Jani Stefanovic - Guitars, Drums and Keys Andreas Olsson - Bass Its always rough knowing that the album you are listening to is the bands last album. In Divinefire’s case this is their last album, Farewell. After four short years this symphonic power metal band is calling it a day, but thankfully they are doing it on good terms. Farewell is my favorite album from Divinefire, hands down this is the best way for the band to step down. Every time I listen to this album I try to picture what could have been if Divinefire stayed together. I’m sure it’s too soon to think that, but Divinefire fans will have that thought in their heads when they listen to Farewell. Christian Rivel has said he’s going to concentrate more on his label, Rivel Records, and some other projects. Rivel was also known as the vocalist for Narnia, but last month he is no longer part of the band. It almost makes you wonder if Rivel has something big up his sleeves, I know I can’t wait. The album breaks down in two parts, melodic death metal and power metal. A majority of this album is indeed power metal, but tracks like Unity and You Will Never Walk Away will have melodic death metal fans on their knees. When one thinks of symphonic power metal they automatically assume over the top power metal. It turns out Divinefire has another meaning and I for one love it. Divinefire’s power metal elements might not be out there like Rhapsody of Fire. All of the tracks have that signature power metal sound to it, which is wonderful considering most power metal today is getting DragonForce-ized. Heal Me, the bands epic twelve minute track, shows off the bands power metal side. The instrumentation on this record is provided by the tree band band mates. Only three men created this record and let me tell you it’s amazing to know that music like this can still be created with such minimal force. Jani Stefanovic’s guitar solos really stand out on this record, especially the few he has on Heal Me. Final Verdict This is Divinefire’s gift to us after four years. It’s sad to see these guys go, but Farewell is a nice achievement in the bands career. Symphonic power metal has never sounded this good before. Thanks Divinefire, Farewell is truly your finest hour in the music industry. |

Класс! Жаль, что когда я увлекался протестантским металлом, у меня до этой группы руки так и не дошли. А то б я ещё тогда имел бы возможность понаслаждаться... ![]() |
