Primal Fear - Black Sun

“Black Sun” is the new album by Primal Fear. And as you might have guessed the band is playing powerful heavy/power metal, mostly influenced by the 80s metal scene. It’s obvious that the band love Judas Priest and especially Rob Halford who is something like an idol for the band’s singer Ralf Scheepers. If some of you are still wondering what they are about to listen to here, I will put it simply: heavy guitars, fast rhythms, powerful screaming vocals and some forceful songs like “Lightyears From Home”, “Armageddon”, the mid-tempo “Magic Eye”, the melodic “Silence” and “Revolution”.
 
Another thing is that “Black Sun” is a very well-produced album with a heavy and sharp sound. So, the fans of the band should already have “Black Sun”! Primal Fear is a very good band that honors its classic metal roots with every new release. There’s nothing wrong with that but I do not see them doing anything else apart from this. It ain’t of minor importance but it’s not enough to add them to the Premier League of heavy metal music…
