Power metal is generally known to be a rather happy and upbeat genre, and while there are certainly some exceptions, and dark, sad power metal does exist, a lot of my favorite bands within the genre are indeed more on the happier side of things. In 2022, I heard an album that embodied everything I love about the genre, with some of the cheeriest lyrics I’ve ever heard, as well as some incredibly upbeat, melodic guitar work and epic soaring vocals. That album was, of course, The Saberlight Chronicles, the full length debut of British power metal band Fellowship, who instantly left their mark on the world, with easily the best power metal debut I’ve heard in a very long time. As exciting as that album was, it was always going to be a tough act to follow, so I was excited, if a bit nervous, to see what the band would do next. Two years later, they’re now set to release their sophomore record, The Skies Above Eternity, and I’m very pleased to say it does not disappoint in the least!
What made The Saberlight Chronicles so special wasn’t that it did anything particularly new or innovative within the power metal scene, but how it took so many familiar sounds and ideas and made them sound fresh, as well as the fact it was one of the most energetic and most upbeat albums I’ve heard in a very long time, even compared against other power metal bands. The Skies Above Eternity continues along the same lines, in that many tracks certainly remind me of other bands, and nothing here sounds overly surprising, but it’s all done so well and sounds so beautiful, I can’t help but love every single note of it. As with the debut, this is a very melodic album, even by power metal standards, with some of the lightest and most melodic guitar work in the genre, along with some light, often playful keyboards and some cinematic symphonic elements. Guitars are often the main focus, along with blistering fast drums, but the keys and symphonic elements do feel a bit more prominent than on the debut, and while the overall sound is still upbeat and optimistic, there is more conflict, and even traces of darkness to be found at times within the music. Instrumental work is absolutely fantastic, with some neoclassical shredding at points, as well as an excellent mix of keys and guitars, and some of the instrumental portions strike a perfect balance between being highly technical and complex, while sounding absolutely gorgeous, with some of the best melodies I’ve heard on a metal album in quite some time. At the same time, it’s also very much a vocal driven album, just like the debut, and there are some absolutely fantastic choruses.
