NIGHTFALL IN MIDDLE-EARTH

This is some extremely catchy power metal with definitely more than a hint of progressiveness. The album's concept is cool and fairly well executed, the mellow moments rock as hard as the rougher stuff, etc. The Curse of Feanor is one of my favorite metal songs; it's catchy, heavy, the vocals soar, etc.

The use of multilayer guitars to make it sound like a ton of people is great for both the music and the concept. I love the entire album, but Mirror Mirror, The Curse of Feanor, and Iron Hill are the best tracks in my opinion. Not 5 stars by any means, however, but it's a solid addition no doubt.
