EVIL MASQUERADE Third Act Escape ESM134 (2006)
European melodic speed metal with a neo gothic edge, this is their third album and pretty enjoyable too. Elements of metal Rainbow, with some outstanding guitar, very much a neo trad metal album. Shred and harmonies too.
A guest appearance of Rainbow’s David Rosenthal too, adding a nice keyboard touch.
Never heard of them before but largely a very good album.
