│║                                                                ║ │
│║        Fogalord's Masters of War is a classic Italian          ║ │
│║        power metal record. It features mid- to up-tempo        ║ │
│║        tracks, great melodic guitar work, crystal clear        ║ │
│║        vocals, numerous epic song structures and has a         ║ │
│║        weakness for majestic orchestrations.                   ║ │
│║                                                                ║ │
│║        What makes Fogalord stand out though is the fact        ║ │
│║        that the band offers all these elements in              ║ │
│║        perfectly balanced doses. Instead of overloading        ║ │
│║        us with a conceptual record with twenty songs           ║ │
│║        featuring two orchestras, three choirs and a            ║ │
│║        clinical production, the band includes a few            ║ │
│║        relaxing instrumental interludes to slow things         ║ │
│║        down and manages to get to the point in most            ║ │
│║        tracks. Fogalord offers a solid mixture between         ║ │
│║        fierce up-tempo power metal tracks, more epic           ║ │
│║        mid-tempo stompers and a few ballads that might         ║ │
│║        not be very original but always authentic on an         ║ │
│║        emotional level. The group also includes some           ║ │
│║        appeasing folk sounds here and there that give          ║ │
│║        the record a more organic sound. These                  ║ │
│║        soundscapes also give the band more of a unique         ║ │
│║        identity. The only extremely long song is the           ║ │
│║        album closer that is at times lacking cohesion          ║ │
│║        but the different parts of the song work very           ║ │
│║        well on their own and never feel artificially           ║ │
│║        stretched. The song focuses much more on its            ║ │
│║        atmospheric side and storytelling process               ║ │
│║        instead of trying to develop an overtly epic            ║ │
│║        approach with too much instrumental wankery.            ║ │
│║                                                                ║ │
│║        Fogalord basically uses the same ingredients as         ║ │
│║        its genre colleagues like Rhapsody of Fire but          ║ │
│║        while these bands often sound overloaded and            ║ │
│║        fail to reinvent themselves, Fogalord sounds            ║ │
│║        balanced and grounded and puts different ideas          ║ │
│║        and soundscapes into the different songs which          ║ │
│║        makes this album not only entertaining but also         ║ │
│║        creative enough to justify numerous spins.              ║ │
│║                                                                ║ │
│║        To keep it short, Fogalord's Masters of War is          ║ │
│║        one of the best Italian power metal albums in           ║ │
│║        recent memory. If you're a fan of this genre,           ║ │
│║        you should definitely purchase this album. If           ║ │
│║        you like folk and power metal but are afraid            ║ │
│║        that this could be too overloaded and                   ║ │
│║        stereotypical, let me assure you that this is           ║ │
│║        definitely not the case since the final product         ║ │
│║        sounds quite balanced and original.                     ║ │
│║                                                                ║ │
