Icarus Witch - Songs For The Lost (CD)

With a special guest appearance by Joe Lynn Turner (Deep Purple / Rainbow) on a rockin’ version of Def Leppard's "Mirror, Mirror," this album brings the old school cool to a hot modern production that will sell to fans of Iron Maiden, Black Sabbath, The Cult as easily as kids weaned on H.I.M. & Lacuna Coil! Icarus Witch, is poised to break through on this follow up to 2005's successful Capture The Magic!

Fans of traditional '70s & '80s classic arena rock & metal rejoice, the underground sensation of 2005 returns with a vengeance on the darker, more epic Songs For The Lost! With the eerie occult feel of forefathers like Uriah Heep, Rainbow & Blue Oyster Cult mixed with the ferocity of stars like Judas Priest, Dokken & Queensryche, true metal saviors, Icarus Witch still manage to not only sound fresh with a powerful modern production compliments of Eric Klinger (Pro-Pain) but they continue to improve & diversify their song craft on this, their most ambitious effort today. The rockers rock more, the gothic doom is even more sinister, the mystic acoustic passages charm before the shredding guitar leads & high octane vocals torch the party once more. Yet unlike most modern metal bands, Icarus Witch's aim isn't to prove how tough, angry or fast they are, it's all about great, timeless songs with huge melodic hooks ready made for fist pumping, head banging old school party pleasure! Their music will appeal to wide range of rock & metal fans of bands like Wolfmother, Dragonforce, The Sword, H.I.M., Rush, Iron Maiden, Dio & Black Sabbath!
