out now: Kenziner's new album Phoenix
Kenziner (Finland) is an uptempo, melodic band with high singing, guitar-hero playing and keyboards. Kenziner hits all the stops throughout the album. Fast rockers. Check. Midtempo anthems. Check. Power ballad. Check. You don’t have to tell this band “Know your audience!” because they do. Ten songs in 43 minutes. Even though it is catchy, melodic songs, there is a prog tendency while still staying away from getting pigeonholed as a prog band. They also a neoclassical vibe in the guitars, and sometimes it is an exchange between the guitars and the keyboards. Phoenix is their fourth album and it was released on June 26th, 2020.
Below is some official information about the album. If you like the music and you would like to support the band, below is the relevant link. These YouTube videos often have no value whatsoever in terms of support for the band. It is better to go through band or label if you want to support the music.
They were among the spearheads of heavy metal in the 1990s: KENZINER. The Finns were one of the leading representatives of the Neo-Classical style with a good dose of Power Metal. After their two classic albums in 1998 and 1999, it took them a few years to return to the scene in 2014 with their third album. Since then, mastermind / guitarist Jarno Keskinen had to involve a new singer, Peter "Zinny" Zalesky. But in 2020 KENZINER want to know it again and they present their fourth, huge new work. The classic keyboard sounds as well as the guitars in Power Metal style, which can be heard immediately. The extremely balanced production also brings out the strong vocals and, in total, leaves nothing to be desired. KENZINER also show a ballad-like atmosphere twice, but otherwise there is melodic Power Metal to be enjoyed by first-class musicians who master their craft and show their skills.
