Review: Gathering Of Kings – First Mission
RN Records (January 2019)
Reviewer: Dan Mann
Here we have another album I’ve been eagerly awaiting having bought four of the tracks from Amazon last year, so I had a pretty good understanding of what the album was going to be like.
‘First Mission‘ is a smörgåsbord of an album, combining a wealth of talent from other Scandi rock bands eg. Masterplan, Therion, The Night Flight Orchestra, Soilwork, Saffire, Pretty Maids, Spiritual Beggars, Corroded, Streamline etc. The end results are a melodic rock fans wet dream. Imagine someone sitting down to record the ultimate Scandi rock sampler, yes it’s that good!
They haven’t shurked on the number of tracks either, giving us twelve in total. And to pick a favorite? It would be easier to squeeze myself through a catflap, but if forced to pick the highlights as it were I’d have to go for ‘Forever and a Day‘, ‘Out of My Life‘ & ‘Saviour‘.
If you are a fan of melodic hard rock and Scandi rock then this really is a no brainer, purchase wise.
Get yourselves a copy and give it the beans!
Gathering Of Kings have released an Official video for ‘Love Will Stay Alive‘ off the band’s upcoming new album ‘First Mission‘.
