Season Of Reign is an album that reminds me why I got into Metal all those years ago. So if you know whats good for you, youll get a copy of Order Of Nines Season Of Reign.
-- Hard & Heavy 97/100
Finally! A kick-ass metal CD with ultra heavy power riffs and spirited leads and solo work. In a world ever dominated by nu metal and progressive metal wannabes, Order Of Nine brings the goods and no one with any sense and a love of pure power metal would dare disagree.
Mike Degrena, the vocalist, brings it like Geoff Tate only five times harder and several keys deeper. The guitar work of Michael Chiccitt though is the ultimate highlight of the album and it rips, shreds and tears bone from sinewy muscle. He is fast yet clean, reminiscent of some of the best of Vivian Campbell with small quick bursts of powerful solo work. Some examples of this great axe work are an ultra-clean, piercing guitar solo in Somnia Requiem, the distortion laced solo in Learn the Way or the manic solo on Vow of Silence.
There just isnt enough space to name the best track on the album because youd have to name every single song! Their overall sound is similar to old Dio or even a slightly muted Metal Church, with a twist of NWOBHM feel. Drums of Michael Sirera that lead yet dont overpower the guitar riffs, spirited vocals and excellent lyrics: this is a recipe for metal stardom. The bass also shines as it lays a nice hard line and occasionally gets a chance to show off a little, like towards the end of Learn the Way.
The CD even has a power metal ballad, Nameless, where Degrena shines on vocals and the guitar is beautiful. The bottom line is this album is outstanding and the band and label should be tremendously proud of this piece of metal artwork. Get online now and buy this power metal trip

Order of Nine
Put together the first music video for one of the songs, that being for the song "Eel Marsh House", which is based on the movie "The Woman In Black". Wasn't sure to name it that instead of 'Eel Marsh..." ...Eel Marsh House being where the woman in black 'lived', and now haunts it. Though, she seems to haunt the general area of the village as well as the House. If anyone catches her gaze, looks into her eyes....a child will die, usually from the family of the person unfortunate to look at her. As you see what happens to the story's main character at the end.
Hope you like it, that's about all for now, Cheers! Rob
