Emerald Shine are a band from the Czech Republic that plays a mixture of fantasy and folk metal and this is a review of their self released 2018 album "Misty tales".
Violins start off the album and also introduces elements of folk music onto the recording which also mixes in with the heavier sections of the songs at times. Female vocals and recorders are also used quite a bit throughout the recording as well as some spoken word parts also a dded into some parts of the music.
The riffs also add in a decent amount of melody along with the harsher vocals bringing elements of black and death metal onto the recording. All of the musical instruments also have a very powerful sound to them while some songs also add in some clean male vocals as well as the faster sections of the tracks also adding in a small amount of blast beats.
Harps and tin whistles can also be heard in certain sections of the recording as well as the music also having its progressive moments. The songs also add in a decent mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts along with one track also introducing acoustic guitars onto the album. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics are a concept album cover their own fantasy fiction of the fantasy world created by J.R.R Tolkien.
In my opinion Emerald Shine are a very great sounding fantasy metal band and if you are a fan of this musical genre, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Autumn Mists" "Where Life's Been Ruined" "The Only One" and "Rainy Night". 8 out of 10.
