Bio:

Thornbridge is a german Power Metal Band formed in 2008.German power metal outfit Thornbridge is due to release the band's debut album "What Will Prevail" - produced by Orden Ogan vocalist Seeb Levermann - in February of 2016 via Massacre Records.The quartet aims to bring back old school power metal with epic songs full of hymn-like choirs and polyphonic guitar melodies.

Album:

Power metal is definitely in the fiber of German culture. Maybe not as deeply embedded as brats and beer, but it's there beneath the surface in the heavy metal underground. Coming from Hasse and formed some eight years ago, Thornbridge rises to the surface to present their first long-player, What Will Prevail. The album contains all three songs from their 2012 demo: Galley of Horror, The Dragon's Reborn, and Neverwinter Nights.Simply, Thornbridge plays old school power metal following long prevailing peers, from native Germany and elsewhere across Europe. Think Helloween, Gamma Ray, Blind Guardian, Running Wild among others. Their metal is classic heavy metal combined with speed metal, with nominal symphonic notes. Quick guitar and bass lines are powered by thundering and galloping drums. For the guitar side, Thornbridge leans heavily on twin guitar harmony, then has one guitarist rip of some fine and fiery solos. Riffs and solos are in abundance here. Vocals also lend to the harmony, often melodic and choral like effect, a common standard of traditional power metal. Yet vocalist J�rg "Mo" Naneder has a bit of raw raspy presentation in his voice.As for the songs, there's a symphonic opening, and then the songs essentially leap from the gate and rush head long to the end, excepting another symphonic segue in the middle, Symphony Of The Battlefield. Yup. You know it's power metal. Even when a song like What Will Prevail tries to trip you up by starting slower and heavier, it eventually turns into a race car. Neverwinter Nights is another song that doesn't begin with a gallop, but a softer introduction with lighter guitars, then gets appropriately riff, yet dials back on the speed ever so slightly. Mostly, everything here is pure and classic power metal. If that's your thing or you like any of the aforementioned bands, Thornbridge is easily recommended for you.

Patrick Rogalski - Guitars (lead), Vocals (backing) (2008-present) (Nightshade)

Album:

Climbing out of the ubiquitous "where have they been" file cabinet, is German metal band Thornbridge. The last we heard from the band was 2016's We Will Prevail, a generous platter of pure Teutonic power metal from the foursome. With the same crew intact, Thornbridge arrives with their long-awaited second album, Theatrical Masterpieces which offers lyrical themes dealing with torture and suppression in the Inquisition of the Middle Ages.Musically speaking, Thornbridge once more delivers classic and traditional power metal, common to peers such as Helloween, GammaRay, Blind Guardian, and Running Wild among others. The usual musical suspects of the genre are found here: rich twin guitar harmony, heavy gallop and groove from the rhythm section, strong vocals in large choral vocal arrangements and, finally, massive guitar solos. Yup. You know power metal when you hear it. And Thornbridge knows the genre quite well.The album is bookended by both an instrumental intro (Take To The Oars) and outro (The Dragon's Sleeping). In between, it's basically off to the races, with every song quickly jumping into the gallop and groove of Thornbridge's speedy power metal. Several songs, such as Journey To The Other Side, Trace Of Destruction, and Set The Sails start the power metal with a rush of thrashing riffs. But then the race is on to the guitar solo. With the bullet train Revelation, featuring vocalist Andy Frank from Brainstorm, begins with shot of symphonic synths before the riffs roar and petal hits the metal. Thornbridge tries to trick you up with Ember In The Winter Grove, which offers an acoustic guitar intro, but then a heavy bass and drum line drop in for more heavy and steady metal. In the end, Thornbridge's Theatrical Masterpiece delivers as promised, offering expertly crafted traditional European power metal. Recommended.

Thornbridge is a german Power Metal Band formed in 2008.German power metal outfit Thornbridge is due to release the band's debut album "What Will Prevail" - produced by Orden Ogan vocalist Seeb Levermann - in February of 2016 via Massacre Records.The quartet aims to bring back old school power metal with epic songs full of hymn-like choirs and polyphonic guitar melodies.

Album:

In contrast to the two previous albums that were more on the heavy side, "Daydream Illusion" is a bit more melancholic and magical, which is also reflected in the vocals that are less aggressive and cleaner on this album.Special attention was paid to catchy melodies and lyrics, and for the first time a ballad made it onto an Thornbridge album. The concept album tells the story of a boy who tries to save his dream world and its characters from the destruction and violence he is confronted with in his real life in the form of questionable and inhumane 'healing methods' and surgeries in a mental asylum set in the early Victorian era.I was blown away by Thornbridge’s debut WHAT WILL PREVAIL back in 2016. I liked it so much I bought the album, bought the shirt and the band made my Top 20 for that year. The 2019 follow up, THEATRICAL MASTERPIECE was also very, very good. It has been a long five years and half the band has changed but here we are with DAYDREAM ILLUSION. Somethings don’t change and Spaniard Castanello does the gorgeous artwork for a third time in a row for the band. The song-writing team is intact and for the third time in a row the band used Greenman studios in Germany and the production team featuring Seeb of Orden Ogan, so the critical infrastructure elements are still in place. What is odd is that, considering all those other stable aspects there has been a slight change in style for this album.For DAYDREAM ILLUSION the band has adopted in part , a circus theme and motif. I cannot think of how many Power Metal bands have done this, (Amberian Dawn, Battle Beast, Edguy, Evil Masquerade, Labyrinth, Manticora, Serious Black, etc.) and while it is not original, I fully like and embrace the theme.If anything, the album is just slightly more melodic and less heavy overall, but the band said that would be the case in statements to the press. The Blind Guardian and Orden Ogan musical touchpoints are relegated to the background a bit more and we get a cleaner, sweeter sound. The band is Metal to the core lots of fast songs driven by double-kick drumming but it seems the vocal melodies are a bit lighter and sweeter this time around.We start with some circus inspired instrumental music with bells and calliope-type sounds and circus sound effects of crowds and children to set the mood and tone. We are off to the races with a traditionally speedy opener, an exciting tune and thankfully the band does not mess with tradition! There is also a surprisingly tender, ballad called ‘Send Me A Light’ with mostly vocals and acoustic piano. It is a beautiful little song. Later in the album I love the militaristic feel and big gang/choir vocals on the cut ‘Final War’. Almost all of the songs are simple and effective, mostly in the four-to-five-minute range with good catchy tunes and effective compositions. All across the album we get good big gang vocal choruses, which I always enjoy.The evolution in sound on DAYDREAM ILLUSION is a calculated balancing act. Can they retain the original fans of the heavier sounds and appeal to a newer, group of slightly more melodic fans? I think when the performances and songs are this good, the band will walk that circus tightrope successfully and find a broader audience. It’s been five years since the last record and it was worth the wait for the Thornbridge circus to come to town.
