Review Musketeer of Death (Nederland) : In a glow of Crimson Red

Dark melodic 80’s metal with a power-touch is the order of the day at Soulsteeler’s "In a glow of crimson red". So prepare yourself for heavy guitars with powerful riffs and catchy solos, a rich picking bass and devastating, still rhythmic drums on the 5 songs. The vocals are decent, still they miss a little power and variation. in which they don’t succeed to lift the sound to a higher level. The use of the keys gives the whole a bombastic and dark feel, still I’m asking myself if it’s really needed to their sound. Without them it would sound more right in the face, in fact they prove that when the keys are not used, or are more in the background. Still with these short comments Soulsteeler have the power to rock and that’s what it’s all about
