│║ Description : ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ Oh, oh, I thought, not another superfluous ║ │
│║ tribute album! ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ But far from that, because with "Return Of The ║ │
│║ Mountain King: A Tribute To SAVATAGE" the ║ │
│║ Italian Underground Symphony label presents a ║ │
│║ sampler that positively differs from the usual ║ │
│║ tribute compilation. First of all the costly and ║ │
│║ greatly designed DigiPak attracts my attention, ║ │
│║ that alone would be worth the money already. But ║ │
│║ Underground Symphony already are renowned for ║ │
│║ great packaging, but only too often poor music. ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ But this time this fear has been insubstantial, ║ │
│║ because (thank God) mainly older SAVATAGE ║ │
│║ material has been used. There are no real points ║ │
│║ of criticism with any of the bands, without ║ │
│║ exception US have chosen worthy bands. Sure, ║ │
│║ there are some weaknesses in the vocal ║ │
│║ department here and there (especially with ║ │
│║ PORTRAIT, although the musical interpretation of ║ │
│║ "Edge Of Thorns" (very doomy) is close to ║ │
│║ brilliant), but apart from that this sampler ║ │
│║ shows almost no weakness. Be it DIVISION with a ║ │
│║ skull-splitting version of "Power Of The Night", ║ │
│║ CIPHER with a very, very metallic interpretation ║ │
│║ of "Chance" (with harsh Death vocals in the ║ │
│║ background!) or MESMERIZE with a very powerful ║ │
│║ "Sirens" (almost shadowing the original), it's ║ │
│║ just plain fun to hear the SAVATAGE classics in ║ │
│║ slightly altered form. ║ │
