ZANISTER - FEAR NO MAN - 2001

Zanister's new release Fear No Man should move the band to the top of the ever growing list of progressive power metal bands. Showcasing musicianship, compositional integrity and riffs from hell, this Cd seems a logical progression from the band's very well received 1999 release "Symphonica Millennia." That CD was called by one reviewer as "Simply the best heavy metal album ever released." Joining guitarists Michael Harris and David T. Chastain once again in the band is vocalist Brian Sarvela, formerly of The Reign of Terror. Brian's performance on this CD totally outclasses all of his previous recorded works. The music fits in the progressive melodic power metal style which incorporates traditional as well as contemporary influences. Harris states, "David and I wanted to record a CD that sounded not unlike "Symphonica Millennia" just a little heavier and progressive. Music that is very heavy, with strong compositions, vocals up front and powerful, intense drumming, and of course more sophisticated metal guitar playing." Fear No Man is an impressive and powerful statement for the world of metal for this and years to come.
