EDEN'S CURSE / TRINITY (2011)

So, here we are with the brand new EDEN'S CURSE release. This band has achieved to be considered as one of the hottest names in today's melodic hard rock/metal scene. Their debut album (2007) was and still is one of the best releases in the 00's. "Second Coming", in 2008,was heavier but still melodic with big hooks and plenty of melodies. "Trinity" is the third chapter, and maybe along with the debut, and probably the best Eden's Curse release to date.

Most of all, "Trinity" is a well crafted heavy rock album. The songs are all well-written and the band is tryin' to combine all the elements of their previous albums plus a fresh air to offer another masterpiece. My opinion is that this album has it all; big hooks, memorable and catchy choruses, fantastic, in your face, guitar work, a solid production but, most of all, superb performances and arrangements! The first song that opens this album is "Trinity". A hard hittin' tune that grabs you and prepares you for what's coming next! "Saints Of Tomorrow" is a more commercial song which features a really catchy chorus line. One of my favorite tracks here. "No Holy Man" is a nice track featuring James LaBrie who takes the vocal duties with Michael Eden. "Guardian Angel" slows the tempo a bit. It's a beautifull ballad with an amazing melody. "Can't Fool The Devil" it's furious and heavy while "Rivers Of Destiny" it's pure melodic hard rock bliss. "Dare To Be Different" is just brilliant! But the most impressive song's part is the monsterous guitar soloing! From the rest of the songs I have to say that I'm really impressed from the Dio's classic tune of "Rock 'N' Roll Children".

All in all, this is another great album from EDEN'S CURSE. As I said above, this band is right among the big names of the hard n' heavy scene and with albums like that they are showing that the future is more than bright! Well done!!
