MABOOL - THE STORY OF THE THREE SONS OF SEVEN

Not much more I can add to the breakdown of the songs. I must admit after seeing these guys live a couple of years back - I was impressed by their energy and enthusiasm. The album is certainly a rocker - and if you can get past the semi-death vocalisations it is a rewarding listen. There is certainly a variation here with the obvious Middle - Eastern influences predominately on show. I like to crack this one open occasionally and the exuberance of the album never fails to disappoint. I have given this album 4 stars - ultimately it is worth slightly less simply due to the fact of the accessibility of the vocals. If you are a fan of prog metal and like the growls more than clean vocals you certainly cannot go too far wrong with purchasing Mabool... otherwise I would listen to a couple of the free MP3s out in the ether before commiting to buy.
