good debut with known metal heroes

The term Allstar band is now, thanks to the flood of more or less good projects almost a dirty word. Some good belt is even better or more successful than the main bands of musicians and this is trouble, while many, many are just plain unnecessary and will certainly never play live.
Serious Black are there apparently different polarity: The newcomer consisting of veterans go directly with Hammerfall and Orden Ogan on a European tour. Perhaps the name simply means that they are serious about the band?
On board are: singer Urban Breed (ex-Bloodbound and Tad Morose, even at Trail of Murder, Project Arcadia), guitarist Roland Grapow (Masterplan, ex-Helloween), drummer Thomen Stauch (ex-Blind Guardian, Savage Circus), bassist Mario Lochert (Emergency Gate, Ex-Visions Of Altantis), keyboardist January Vacik (ex-Dreamscape) and guitarist Dominik Sebastian (Edenbridge) round out the group. The band is as six friends founded the band marketed and are a quasi 'half an Allstar troupe of professionals who also lose a good reputation. But he is not in danger since the debut of 10 strong pieces and an intermediate piece includes. Breed is one of the best and most distinctive vocalists of the scene and ennobles with his voice some albums. While I was caught in the songs forward to hearing quotations or allusions to old or current bands of the parties, I have to confess that everything sounds fresh and not boiled. Ok, "High And Low" reminds me then something to master plan, but no matter! The keyboard is not too much in the foreground, but with two guitarists I would have in general (as well as many other groups) hopes more guitar power. The songs are never more than four minutes, thereby surprisingly compact and free of ballast. Besides borne numbers that could be baptized kitsch free ballads here is everything you need on board by mid-tempo up-tempo. The strong artwork complete the good impression when I think even that is certainly here to pick up even more. Let us wait and see. Fans of such music are here, but 100% correct!
