Rata
Blanca - " El camino del fuego " |
This last Rata Blanca album
doesn't make us ride over the enchanted forrest like in "Magos, Espadas y Rosas"
it is no longer the warrior remembering the times when he lost his loved one, this time
they show us another style. In "El camino de Fuego" the band runs as fast as
they can. With a great amount of hard rocking riffs, simple but effective, acomplish their
task of catartic 70's hard rock. All of this along every song in the album except in
tracks 7, 9 y 10 where we can hear the trademark Rata Blanca sound, and in track 8 the
classic metal ballad but this time with blues influences. This album doesn't represent a
significative change in Rata Blanca style, just more of those provocative heavy metal
tunes they have us used to. But this album comes in the right time when power metal is as
saturated as it is. Inclusive Walter Giardino leave his beloved harmonic minor scales to
perform some more rocking pentatonic solos, just like their beloved Deep Purple (Ritchie
Blackmore to be more specific). |
