Tommy ReinXeed calls his music “adventurous power metal,” but whatever you want to call it, we call it great stuff for fans of bands like Helloween, Hammerfall, Rhapsody of Fire, etc. Tommy has also recorded a few releases with Golden Resurrection, but since his being discovered in 2007 by Christian Liljegren (Narnia, Golden Resurrection), he has put together six amazing albums of his own (seven if you count his Swedish Hits Goes Metal project release). This album has a bit more metal edge to it, though. You can check out the music video for “Guitar Hero” now, until the album is released in September. As always, production is top-notch, as is the musicianship. Fans of this genre of metal should be pleased with another stellar release.

Andrew Voigt digs a little deeper into the Swedish band's roots, uncovers the narratives on the new release, and finds out how a little playground spat brought the band together.
