Rage In My Eyes: Brings an icy new edge…..

Rage In My Eyes and their latest video Winter Dream (a quarantine music video from the band’s participation in the Roadie Crew Online Festival).

Rage In my Eyes once opened for Iron Maiden, and the band is for fans of Helloween and Symphony X etc. Rage In My Eyes is a technically sound heavy metal act hailing from Porto Alegre, Brazil, and the album. Ice Cell is the first album by the band under their current name; the group also released three albums under Scelerata. Rage In My Eyes brings an icy new edge to traditional power metal.

They originally was formed in 2002 and with the recent name change has altered their sound to incorporate traditional music from South America with prog and heavy metal. Along with the cultural infusion, Rage In My Eyes brings in accordion for a truly one of a kind listening experience. Vocalist Jonathas Pozo explains the conception of Winter Dream:

«We had already chosen Winter Dream as the opening track, which led us to address the lyric theme in order to present a little of the icy scenery of Ice Cell, imagining the aspect of our biological and chemical origin under the influence of the morphic field theory of Rupert Sheldrake, that is, considering the presence of the past as an important constituent of our subsequent choices, as humanity. At the same time bringing in this scenario landscapes that are common in southern Brazil, such as fog, frost, and sometimes even snow. It was also chosen because it is a more cadenced and heavy song (although also extremely technical and quite proggy), thus contrasting with the usual melodic and fast opening tracks in power metal albums, representing more accurately the musical humor of the band». The tracks Death Sleepers and Hole In The Shells,

Overall, the album can be summed up as tight. It has great guitar riffs, fast drum parts, intricate instrumental parts, and powerful yet melodic vocals. Sometimes it leans towards prog metal, sometimes to power metal, sometimes to folk metal, sometimes to traditional metal, sometimes to thrash metal. And it still sounds like a cohesive whole, due to how well blended it all is.
