│║        Stainless is one of those releases I like               ║ │
│║        calling safe ones. Those of you familiar with           ║ │
│║        Mesmerize will like this, no doubt about it. The        ║ │
│║        rest who never really bonded with the band will         ║ │
│║        see nothing too different in here. Without              ║ │
│║        lacking any progress at all Stainless sounds as         ║ │
│║        if it was released a week after their previous          ║ │
│║        work.                                                   ║ │
│║        Mesmerize was formed back in 1988 and ever since        ║ │
│║        they've only gone through one lineup change (the        ║ │
│║        band's previous guitarist Paolo Chiodini was            ║ │
│║        replaced by Piero Paravidino in 2003). In their         ║ │
│║        early years the released two demo tapes RIP             ║ │
│║        Memerize (1991) and Tregenda (1993) and                 ║ │
│║        performed live as much as possible. Their first         ║ │
│║        full length release came in 1998 (Tales Of              ║ │
│║        Wonder) and was followed by Vultures Paradise in        ║ │
│║        2000. However most people know Mesmerize as the         ║ │
│║        band of vocalist Folco Orlandini, one of the            ║ │
│║        most known and talented vocalist in Italy. He           ║ │
│║        was the voice behind Time Machine's masterpiece         ║ │
│║        Act II: Galileo and also a member of Skylark and        ║ │
│║        Eddy Antonini.                                          ║ │
│║        Mesmerize play traditional Metal in the vein of         ║ │
│║        mid period Iron Maiden / early period Helloween.        ║ │
│║        What they do, they do it really well. Most songs        ║ │
│║        are mature and there's no objection that the            ║ │
│║        band has overworked over their compositions. The        ║ │
│║        addition of some guest vocals adds extra color          ║ │
│║        (Vanni Ceni, singer of Wotan sings in two songs         ║ │
│║        and Paola Bianchi from Ludmila boosts the final         ║ │
│║        song) while there is use of keyboards for the           ║ │
│║        first time. Add to all this a folk touch given          ║ │
│║        by a violin in some songs.                              ║ │
│║        Problem is that apart from those additions              ║ │
│║        there's nothing new in this one. No surprises,          ║ │
│║        while only a couple of songs can be considered          ║ │
│║        as strong in the test of time. The rest are             ║ │
│║        pretty much common in classic Metal. So in order        ║ │
│║        to make a perfect circle in this review (thus           ║ │
│║        return to the start) Stainless is a safe album,         ║ │
│║        after three years of silence Mesmerize seem             ║ │
│║        stuck in the exact same place. I think it's time        ║ │
│║        for them to move onà                                    ║ │
