│║ ║ │
│║ Description : ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ The Ignitor is the fifth album from Finnish ║ │
│║ metal act Burning Point, finding the band ║ │
│║ blending power metal in the vein of Primal Fear, ║ │
│║ with the rapid attack of classic era Helloween. ║ │
│║ And a damn fine job they have done of it too! To ║ │
│║ some the familiar themes might feel like a bit ║ │
│║ of a retread of other band's styles and ideas. ║ │
│║ However the strong addition of keyboards and the ║ │
│║ conviction with which this hard riffing lot ║ │
│║ attack their songs makes for an extremely ║ │
│║ involving album. Singer Pete Ahonen possesses ║ │
│║ the right blend of high octane histrionics and a ║ │
│║ lower register bark, giving the songs a ║ │
│║ surprising range and scope. His voice, along ║ │
│║ with the ever busy guitar barrage from Pekka ║ │
│║ Kolivoiuri shape the intentions of The Ignitor, ║ │
│║ although the keyboard contribution (I'm guessing ║ │
│║ courtesy of the now departed Pasi Hiltula?) also ║ │
│║ makes a big impact on the album. ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ Unlike many bands operating in this genre, ║ │
│║ Burning Point avoid sounding too similar from ║ │
│║ song to song, with the likes of the slower chant ║ │
│║ of "Lost Tribe", or the Dio like stomp of "Demon ║ │
│║ Inside Of You", which also feature less in the ║ │
│║ way of keyboards, cleverly breaking up the ║ │
│║ speed-fests of "In The Fire Of Myself - Made" ║ │
│║ and "Holier Than Thou". Drummer Jussi Ontero ║ │
│║ keeps things thundering along and whether it be ║ │
│║ through his thousand beats a second pummelling, ║ │
│║ or more restrained power-smashes, his tight time ║ │
│║ keeping and ability to constantly work the whole ║ │
│║ kit without swamping the rest of the music is ║ │
│║ something many better known drummers could learn ║ │
│║ from. Not to be outdone bassist Jukka Jokikokko ║ │
│║ also knows when to really thunder things up and ║ │
│║ when to take a wise step back. ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ I wouldn't go as far as to suggest that The ║ │
│║ Ignitor will suddenly make non believers in ║ │
│║ power or speed metal bombast see the errors of ║ │
│║ their ways. However Burning Point have created ║ │
│║ an album, that while far from reinventing the ║ │
│║ wheel, will have ardent followers of this style ║ │
│║ of music frothing over their air-guitars. ║ │
