Dungeon - One step Beyond
Amazon Review: Dungeon were formed in 1989 in the desert outback of Broken Hill, Australia by vocalist and guitarist "Lord" Tim, whom folk have dubbed "The Kai Hansen of the Oz metal scene". After several releases, tours of both Australia and Japan and a revolving door of band members, Lord Tim has settled in with Stu Marshall (guitar) and new band members Pete Peric (bass) and Grahame Goode (drums). Having been influenced by a wide range of bands such as Helloween, Dokken, Slayer, Judas Priest, Soilwork and Blind Guardian, it is no surprise that they have learned to combine their melodic guitar and song lines with heaps of killer riffs and doublebass attacks. With the new album, One Step Beyond, Dungeon have opened a new chapter of their successful career and set forth to conquer Europe. Once again the lovely twin guitar harmonies are coupled with the unique voice of Lord Tim and the clever arrangements make the entire affair a power metal odyssey, not lacking the essential toughness thanks due to the barrage of hammering riffs and superb production.
