'Blood Red Soul' is a new symphonic metal band founded by the German multi-instrumentist 'Achim Shreiner' who is releasing his first studio album 'Symphony of a Memory'. Also participating in this project are New Zealand mezzo-soprano 'Ellie Kamphuis' and Austrian drummer 'James Sutcliffe'. In addition, for this first opus, they invited several singers of the metal scene including 'Fiona Creaby', the new recruit of 'Fallen Arise' (their last album Here). The style they propose to us is an accessible symphonic metal with easily assimilable melodies and the compositions are varied and share between energetic titles ('Tempest', 'At The Water Edge', 'Prey'), ballads ('Hold You Down', 'Sail Away from the Sorrow' , 'Fade Away'), mid-tempo ('Evergrey', 'Time Run Away' , 'Destination Love') and an instrumental track that uses sounds from classical instruments ('Symphony of a Memory') which will certainly serve as an introduction to concerts. To quote a similar band, it's 'Within Temptation' that comes to my mind first. In summary, even if they do not bring real novelties to the genre, 'Blood Red Soul' is added to the already long list of symphonic metal bands and have all the capacity to take a good place in. the future...
