Death Of A Hero

by Bakken

supported by

Thomas Anderson Very good Hard Rock effort here. Vocals lean toward James Hetfield styling which is never a bad thing. A collection of good songs to work out to and jam on the headphones. Check out killer track "Back to the Future" a standout double bass drum driven opening with great riffs that soar over the pre chorus and some nice breaks that lead into hard rocking epic jams . Must have album for metal/hard rock fans who enjoy Metallic or Iron Maiden. Favorite track: Bakken - Darkest Day.

Morts Gutsy, epic speed/power metal with touches of symphonic metal! If you're already interested I urge you to have a listen cuz Bakken is a top notch band! One of the aspects that make this band stand out is that the guitars are edgier, grittier, less smooth than the norm, more like a battle hardened warrior than a technical tactician! Absolutely brilliant!! Favorite track: Bakken - Voyage Of Aodh.

Ashley Strutt Another of those albums that I loved at first listen..bought the CD version because I like to buy things that way. Its lived in the car cd player ever since.

An absolutely beautiful composition through and through. The riffs and melodies are so tight and well crafted, with soaring lyrics that pull the whole story together. When I first heard Across the Ancient Dessert, I stopped what I was doing and my heart skipped a beat. I think it encapsulated every emotion I had reading the Chain of Dogs for the first time. That series means something special to me. I was already loving the album, and this song sold me immediately. This is really worth a listen. barleybase
