epic metal

Hmm… given the album title, company, country of origin and track titles, I sort of knew what to expect, but in all truth I wasn’t expecting it to be delivered with such aplomb.
 
Epic power metal that feels as if someone mixed Enforcer with Manowar with slightly more straightforward songwriting that feels a little like Hammerfall at their “heaviest” with a bit more shouting and ear splitting falsettos than it should be legal.
 

Human Fortresses career is a little weird. They released two imperfect by highly promising albums with vocalist Joti Parharides, who went on to sing for Herman Frank and Victory, among others, that were inspiring slabs of power metal, but then did a 180 turn, by releasing a third album that only retained the moniker and went into a groove direction, introducing a new singer that only lasted that album’s cycle.
