WildeStarr – A Tale Tell Heart (2012)

Dave Starr and London Wilde (and the other dude) return with another excellent hard-rocking release that will be quite hard to equal by all the newbie bands trying to play straight up Melodic Metal these days. In “A Tale Tell Heart”, the band delivers a ten song dosage of excellent Metal anthems that greatly showcase London’s gifted singing talents and Dave’s master abilities to craft engaging melodies filled with epic melodic moments.

Since the opener “Immortal”, we are let into the band’s world of traditional Metal with epic vocal lines, killer guitar work, and superb drumming. Led by epic riffs, tracks like “Transformis Ligea”, “A Perfect Storm”, and “Valkyrie Cry” blow past the listener pounding on your speakers like the good old Metal albums from back in the day. Even epic ballads like “Last Holy King” deliver that much needed infusion of true heartfelt metal that bands are missing these days.

With more pummeling Heavy/Power Metal coming your way with “In Staccata”, “Not Sane”, “Seven Shades of Winter”, and “The Pit Or The Pendulum”, we are treated to the powerful vocals of London and her impressive range. As we stated before, the guitar work is quite excellent and there are plenty of well-crafted solos that greatly enhance the vibe of the music.

With Dave’s musical experience, the band’s sound is very well refined and nicely helped by the vibrant production. “A Tale Tell Heart” has indeed no weak or dull moments, and every song has particular moments of epicness that are quite delightful and enjoyable. If you are in the market for something along the lines of Accept and such traditional sounding Heavy Metal bands, but also want some Power Metal thrown into the mix, then get this excellent release.
