Hounds - "Warrior of Sun" (album stream)

Οι Hounds μας έρχονται από την Ιταλία. Δημιουργήθηκαν προ τετραετίας ως μπάντα διασκευών στους (θεούς) Savatage, αλλά σύντομα άρχισαν να γράφουν την δική τους μουσική. Παίζουν 80's Heavy / Power Metal (κατά δήλωση των ιδίων) κι αναφέρουν ως επιρροές μπάντες όπως οι Savatage, Judas Priest, Rainbow, Metal Church, Scorpions, Virgin Steele, Running Wild, Accept, King Diamond, Ufo. Έχουν κυκλοφορήσει ένα ep ("Hounds" 2018) κι έναν "ολοκληρωμένο" δίσκο, ο οποίος φέρει τον τίτλο "Warrior of Sun" και "βγήκε" προ ημερών...

Bio: «The Hounds are an Heavy/Power Metal band born in 2016 from an idea of Massimo Ventura (Vocals / Guitar), Marco De Fabianis (Keys) and Enrico Cairola (Drums). At first the aim of the project was purely to have fun mainly covering the songs of the great Savatage, without any assumption to play live and even less to record an album.

Later, when Stefano Paparesta (Bass) and Alessandro Zelferino (Guitar) came, the band spontaneusly found new inspiration and ideas to create its own original music, clearly inspired by the masters of Hard and Heavy, among which the alrady named Savatage, Judas Priest and Rainbow to name a few and 80's US Power Metal.»
