AXXION – BACK IN TIME 2016

axxionbackintime
Sophomore full-length from Toronto traditional metallers (pronounced “action”), now with Cauldron bassist Jason Decay in the fold. The vocals are shrill, stratospheric (is it a man or is it a woman?) The opening 1:55 “Attakr” is a Maiden inspired all-instrumental intro, but then the title track turns around and has an intro all its own. High energy rocker “Lost In Flames” opts for a normal male register (until the end, when the scales are climbed, as things fade out), as does easy sing-along “Highway Kings”.
