Before some days i received a package from a historic band. Damien Steele comes from the other side of Atlantic and recently they released their new CD which includes the original five song demo tape and four unreleased songs. Damien Steele formed back in 1982 and having a history of more than twenty three years, they survived from many difficulties but now they are back with their new release. Musically the band walks in progressive metal paths and you can describe their music as a mix of Queensryche and Fates Warning. So for sure we will have also some power metal elements and of course the progressive metal elements to the whole album. Also their compositions are about three and four minutes so it is easy to listen them. Their songs are well worked and even if some of them are for more than two decades you can see that they can still standing after so many years. Definitely you can say that Damien Steele is like the big progressive metal bands and if they haven't these problems, now we will talk for them too. But if you are a fan of progressive music then you must hear this stuff. You will surprised by their musicianship and their songs structure which is almost excellent. I want to thank the people from Progressive Music Management that gives me the great opportunity to hear this great stuff of music.
