Title: “Lost in the depths of me”
Artiste: Lost Horizon
Genre: Progressive Metal
Taken from: A Flame to the Ground Beneath
Familiarity: Zero
Suggested by: mythsofmetal

Expectations: Prog metal is usually a good bet with me. Add in myths's recs and they're usually on the money, so I'm pretty optimistic.

Woo-hoo! Good powerful, crushing opening with hammering drums and snarling guitars, then it rockets off in a typical, actually more power metal vein, but I'm not complaining. Hmm, once the vocal comes in it's really power metal, so maybe they're more in that style? Sort of warriorish, Manowarlike song. Vocalist has a great range. It's quite a long song (just short of nine minutes) but I do feel it's very Manowar-lite. That's not to say it's not good, but perhaps not quite as original as I had hoped for.

Conclusion: I'd say a decent song, but a little too long for what's in it. Kind of lost interest halfway through.

So, Love or Hate? I'll give it a Like, but that's the best I can do.

Possibility of looking into the album: Dunno. Maybe 35%
