now playing: Falconer - The Past Still Lives On
 | 200 pixels does not do the album art justice for Swedish power/folk metal band Falconer's 2001 self-titled debut. This would be a great album to experience live just to sing along with the band in songs like "The Lord of the Blacksmiths" and "Heresy in Disguise". The Swedish bonus track, "Per Tyrssons Döttrar I Vänge", brings the folk elements to the forefront. While not every song on this album shines, its hard-hitting riffs and booming double bass, coupled with the use of an anvil as an instrument, make for an incredibly strong example of what power metal can really be. |
