Forgotten Tales – All The Sinners

Forgotten Tales, was one of the very first bands that sended to me their work back in 2001 (alongside Bejelit if I remember correct). Back then the band released their debut album with the title "The Promise". What a prophetic title... after three years the band keeps this promise and release their second album.

In the album "All the sinners", we have ten songs from Forgotten Tales, if you read the song titles you will understand that this album is somehow divided in two sections, the first six tracks which is the main story "Pagan Chronicles" and the rest songs. You can describe the music of Forgotten Tales, as power metal with some medieval elements and female vocals. The influences from Rhapsody are also quite obvious.

From their debut album I knew that this band had a high level. All their songs are  good and some of them are really excellent. I can pick up : "Lady of the forest", "All the sinners", "March of Freedom" and "Three wishes" as the highlights of this release. I don't know if you will find it in the music stores near you  but you can buy it through the website of the band, so don't hesitate to do it, because Forgotten Tales deserves more. For sure I believe that the next step is to find finally a big label to release their albums worldwide.
