Play List
One moment, with first track 'Face To Face (Part I)' as a prime example, they sound like Muse performing a Black Sabbath track in a church hall. Next moment (literally) they head down rue de la power metal. 'Kill The Dogs' is a gnarly speed fest with bags of intrigue and a lethal dose of character. The haunting female vocalizing interludes are hugely atmospheric.
Invictus Band
Persecution could probably best be described as general melodic heavy metal that draws from and integrates various other styles into their song composition. This includes power metal (Kill The Dogs, Spiral or See You Back), straigh melodic metal (Face To Face Part 2 or The Eclipse Of The World), even some progressive metal (Silence Of Death), and combinations of several (Face To Face Part 1). In the end, Persecution is eclectic mix of music making it an interesting listen (even with its overt anti-war sentimentality). Additionally, you can hear strong elements of European metal elements from Stratovarius to Edguy to Scorpions which also may account for the musical variety. Again, I submit it is a perfect fit for Escape Music.
