Volster’s Arise shifts the dial ever so slightly and delves into the realm of AOR alongside the classic touches of heavy metal and progressive rock.
“Revolution,” is a punchy opener. A strong riff based song that really pushes the boundaries and feeds in nicely to “Arise,” the title track which slams down and hits hard.
This then sees the band venture into new territory on songs such as. “Turn The Tide,” and “End of the World,” which have a bit of an Alter Bridge and symphonic feeling to them. All of this just adds to their grandeur and power.
The finale that comes with songs such as “Highroad,” and “Till The End Of Time,” is suitably epic and a great way to sign the album off.
The record is out on 13th November via ROAR.
