Condition Red

Condition Red is a fulfilling power-metal work on which Iron Savior, against a grand sci-fi concept, layers robust guitar riffs, machine-precise rhythm and thick choruses. It pushes the new-lineup musicality established on the previous Dark Assault further. The songs, while keeping their speeding pace, always have clear vocal melody, and a grand narrative and accessible catchiness are united at a high level. From the drive of the powerful opening classic “Titans of Our Time” and the drama of the title track “Condition Red” to cuts like “Protector” and “Ironbound,” every song is engaging, while cuts like “Warrior” and “Walls of Fire” convey the work’s fullness. Even within the hard, steel-like sound, hot, burning melody and heroic, lift-filled developments firmly breathe. A record letting you truly frankly and fully savor the exhilarating pleasure particular to German-style power metal. It supports a grand world and powerful songs with sure playing. A powerful, engaging, fulfilling work symbolizing Iron Savior’s early fulfilling period — a record concentrating the band’s appeal.
