A rhyme to child, a door that squeaks and go for nearly 45 minutes of symphonic metal on this last album 'Once Upon A Time' of the German 'Xiphea' group which is in her 2nd studio album but which does not have too much noise on the Web: aside from the Sabine, hard to find singer who plays what between Neil Bence and René. And yet, after a first listen, we realize the potential of the group, which draws all of the compositions on the fairytale in general and more particulieement of Xiphea (their page on this tale here). The image of the title 'Cinderella' (Cinderella), their compositions are quite varied and incorporate different ingredients as often in this style of music: powerful riffs guitars, breaks in rhythmic, symphonic parts using wind instruments, growls pretty well dosed, choirs and the voice of Sabine who fits perfectly into this mix. In summary, an already mature group who offers us a very rich and album which is yet for months a good surprise for the year 2016...
