Details: For a decade now, Nocturnal Rites have been somewhat of a trademark for melodic metal. Utilizing crafty musicianship and writing memorable, spirited pieces, this Swedish quintet recreate the familiar feel of the traditional heavy metal sound popularized by acts like Iron Maiden and Judas Priest. With European acts like Blind Guardian and Hammerfall gaining in popularity with each passing day, Nocturnal Rites integrity and refusal to sell-out are finally beginning to payoff. The band writes metal songs not targeted for the quick bandwagon paycheck, but rather music that pleases themselves and fans that revel in a more traditional style of metal. Grand Illusion showcases a range of edgy riffs and majestic leads that make for an epic Swedish experience that sounds much fresher than the output of many a younger act. Century. 2006.
