~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Gauntlet is a Spanish metal band, formed back in 1998, which managed to remain alive and rocking during all these years while passing through many mishaps and changes in their line-up ("we are the ones who have the right to say how hard it is”). And since they survived, they became stronger... The band seems in a great mood for producing its music and passing some messages along the way. Technically, I would describe their music as melodic/speed heavy metal: heavy riffs, clean strong vocals, melodies and engines at full speed. A simple recipe cogently executed. The production has got help from Finnvox but, to my taste, it still needs some clarity and volume. All in all, this is a heavy metal album from a band that sounds free from the anxiety trap of participating in the producers/consumers rat race, a band that is here to play its music (and kick some ass!).
