We spoke with the band prior to this review here's what they had to say:




Tunings?


Hello!, we are Angel Vengeance, we’ve just released our debut album Angel of Vengeance with Downfall Records(Sweden), it’s melodic power metal album that contains sticky melodies and hooks, all you need from power metal is here together with progressive music, twins lead guitars, beautiful harmonies, bass and drums solo. Theme of this album is about Apocalypse, our world is rotten by the activities of human, too much consumptions that brings us pollutions, global warming, hate, greedy, and the war we made, plague, and as the time comes to an end, Angel of Vengeance will bring us the justice, fairness, harmony, vengeance and redemption, Symphony of Apocalypse is playing slowly!!..



Bands you have played with?


Mostly are Japanese metal bands that we have played with no matter Maverick, Sirent Screem, Helldump, Anelas, All Images Blazing, Nacarbide and mores. Along with the plan of this year, we’re gonna play with Freedom Call, German power metal but as we know, we’re all on pandemic right now, all the shows have been postponed to the next year 2021, so stay safe and after rescheduling, see you all at the shows.




Accomplishments?


Angel of Vengeance is our debut album that the band and I intended to do since selecting the songs, melodies and techniques to use in each part, the band and I are satisfied with the results and absolutely, this is a powerful album that power metal fans will like it, great feedback from the audiences around the world, Mike and Downfall Records distribute this album worldwide, pandemic affects our shipments both CD and merchandises but hang on, the fans will get them all, so stay tuned!.



Goals


We will try to reach as much as possible for the audiences around the world, we’re on pandemic right now, cannot do anything much especially go for the shows but fortunately, social networks help us presenting our music throughout the world. After pandemic, we will be back on the road again, see you at the front!.




FUNNY/WEIRD story about your band?


Funny story is the band and I almost missed the flight back to Bangkok, Thailand because of the wrong place appointment, different gates we waited with poor WiFi signal to contact each member such a bad joke it is, ha ha ha.


Weird story is our debut album, Angel of Vengeance with Apocalypse theme released in 2020 this year during pandemic and conflict situations around the world, will doomsday clock move to midnight ?!!... 




LET'S GET TO THE REVIEW:


OPEN YOUR EYES

Has a distinct DRAGONFORCE feel to it, soaring guitars with swift arpeggios and scales and fast pick attacks..


Persistent drum patterns are good..


Good riffs, good solos, very melodic at times..


Hard and fast riffs.


KARMAGEDDON







https://youtu.be/JxQMa7svNPs




I liked all the started out with a slower pace..


Solid chugging riffs..


Sudden shift into harmonizing leads was good..


Sped up to a blistering Pace well..


Complex guitar parts..


Shifts tempo a lot which is hard to do.




STREET OF TOMORROW 







https://youtu.be/dFf30qJSzYY




Good background sounds..


Studio production is good..


Aggressive guitar work..


Good drum work..


The accent on the vocals of the songs is good and sets them apart it was probably difficult to sing all of the songs in English..


My favorite song. 


ANGEL OF VENGEANCE 





Starts out very creepy but the erupts Suddenly then erupts again..


Very impressive guitar work here..


Solid song.




BLOOD OF THE BROTHERS 







https://youtu.be/-_N-hCALw0Q




Another solid banger..


Using guitar tones in a clear" manner, the highs and lows bring a crisper tone well the mids allow the guitar to store with pitch and sustain.




BOTTOM LINE:




Angel Vengeance brings some solid fretwork and a booming drum line to highlight the vocals, producing an overall sound that fits their band.
