Savage Poetry (Shm / Mini Paper Jacket)

Ah, Edguy, the German power metal band that never fails to deliver the goods. Their 1995 album "Savage Poetry" is no exception. From the opening track "Hallowed Spirits", the listener is transported into a world of dragons, knights, and epic battles. It's like Game of Thrones, but with more guitars and less incest. Lead singer Tobias Sammet's vocals soar to great heights, perfectly complementing the shredding guitars and thundering drums. It's like he's the lovechild of Freddy Mercury and a Viking warrior. The title track "Savage Poetry" is a true highlight, with its blistering guitar solos and anthemic chorus. It's the kind of song that makes you want to raise your fist in the air and scream "Hell yeah!" But it's not all fast-paced rockers - tracks like "Eyes of the Tyrant" and "Frozen Candle" show a softer, more melodic side to the band. It's like they're saying, "Hey, we can do ballads too, you know." Overall, "Savage Poetry" is a must-listen for any fan of power metal. It's epic, it's fun, and it's downright glorious. So grab your sword, don your armour, and prepare for a musical journey like no other. Edguy, we salute you.
