GLADIATOR
La escuela estadounidense del power metal nos deja una banda de reciente formación, (2014), Niviane, con su primer, y hasta la fecha de esta reseña, único LP, "The Druid King", del presente 2018. Sin descubrir nada demasiado original, si que "Niviane" hace bien lo que propone, un power bastante de la escuela americana, con un cierto aire a bandas como Iced Earth, (salvando las distancias), por lo tanto con un enfoque más allá hacia una especie de thrash sin llegar a serlo, casi es una pincelada en ocasiones, pero sin duda la concepción viene del power. Ese punto thrash es el alcanzado por los citados Iced Earth, que se puede decir que han ido sin duda hacia el power desde hace mucho, así pues sería un punto intermedio más cercano al power, un tanto groove, sobre todo en temas como este "Gladiator" extraído del citado único LP hasta el momento "The druid king", canción de la que dejo un enlace a youtube.
Gladiator slayer of the weak
Captured by slavers
Forced to kill for a master's greed
Filled with anger
Vengeance he'll wreak
But now faced with danger
Another victim is all he sees
The numbers fall in defeat
So many slain lay at his feet
They're more contests yet to complete
Before you're set free
With his sword raised high
And a triumphant cry
Another game survived
Gladiator, power and glory
50,000 spectators
Chant your name in victory
The numbers fall in defeat
So many slain lay at his feet
They're more contests yet to complete
Before you're set free
With his sword raised high
And a triumphant cry
Another game survived
With his sword raised high
And a triumphant cry
Another game survived
The road to freedom paid in blood
Both innocent and corrupt
Will it ever be enough?
