Info:

I was expecting something more keyboardy and neoclassical, but Vhaldemar are a much more traditional Heavy Metal band. This is melodic, sure, but between the super-crunchy guitar attack and the rough-edged vocals of Carlos Escudero this is much more like German metal than Italian. The real star of the show here is obviously guitar virtuoso Pedro Monge, who is a genuine shredder of the old-school. He reminds me of a metal Eddie Van Halen with his intricate leads and the little taps, bends and other goodies he spikes his riffs with to keep things interesting. He doesn't noodle out of control, but always stays on track.
