Forgotten Tales
Quebec is hardly a power metal hotbed (the province is far more
well-known for producing extreme death metal bands), but
Forgotten Tales is a capable European-influenced band from the
Canadian region, having formed in 1999 and with two albums under
their belts to date.
Sonia Pineault is one of the few female power metal vocalists making
the rounds these days (Elisa Martin of
Dark Moor
and
Fairyland
is another) -- hers is a clear, forceful, high-pitched voice,
giving the band a bit of distinctiveness in an overcrowded field.
The music is standard speedy melodic Euro metal in the tradition
of bands like
Rhapsody Of Fire
or
Stratovarius,
well performed and executed if not original.
They have a way to go to move into the major leagues of power metal,
but hardened Euro fans will like this band.
