Varden [Most Metal?]
A symphonic / power metal band from Cairo, Egypt. The band incorporates many elements of symphonic, metal & rock music into their music, the beautiful blend is mind-blowing with both energy of electric guitars riffs and chops and beauty of different orchestral & instrumental arrangements. – Or so they say… we’ll be the judges of that!
With Sworn To Silence seizing the throne for South Africa’s Most Metal Underground band, we now shift our focus to yet another African metal band, Varden! Will they become Egypt’s Most Metal?
Their first track, ‘Building My Love’ already gave us the inside scoop on what we can expect from these dudes. With beautiful melodic guitar picking and a nice blend of piano melodies gives Varden that awesome ‘Nightwish’-like feel to it. The song shifts from a calm before the storm to an actual storm of decent heavy metal drama. The guitar solo thereof is also superb.
Viking metal to its finest… yet the vocal work is quite monotonous in the sense that we would’ve treasured a screaming variety perhaps? We’re huge fans of instrumental metal nonetheless and the double bass is something that definitely gets us going.
One thing is for certain. I would dig to see them live. I can only imagine solid headbanging right through!
Our favourite track would definitely be ‘Building My Love’ (even though it’s probably the only quality driven track we could get our hands on for now.)
