An unreleased gem from ShinZm, this one shines bright with the power of rock music with a delightful Metal instrumental where rythm guitar and lead guitar are completing each other in an explosion of epicness. Full of happy vibes, the progression of the track holds some surprises, with a favorite of mine, a cover of the melodies from the show song Find A Pet at the end!

Reverbrony hasn’t lost his touch, and delivers a massive progressive concentrate of Symphonic Metal epicness, extra heavy! Encompassing the theme of epic battles, Among the Brave does an amazing job at representing that side of the show, with violins, guitars, and drums all contributing to create this masterpiece of sound!

Thrasher is gracing us with a P@D submission once again, and his skill at Metalcore shines bright in this Guardians track, with sick guitar riffs being complemented by enthralling synth melodies, in a hard-hitting progression that delivers musical bliss like a firework. The background ambient synths are adding even more sublte emotion to the mix, and it is all resulting in quite a masterpiece!

SDreamExplorerS & Velvet R. Wings – Selena | Melodic Death Metal
SDreamExplorerS’ sister collaborated once again with her brother for making an amazing song that is featured in the album Erasing The Enigma.
The mix between Velvet’s clean vocals and SDreamExplorerS’ screams is the most beautiful thing that you will ever hear in this album. As I said on the album review, this song reminds me of the great acts of the Swedish/Scandinavian Melodic Death Metal scene, such as In Flames, Children of Bodom, Amon Amarth, At the Gates and Arch Enemy. Even that is not related with Death Metal at all, Velvet’s vocals reminder me Nightwish and Epica songs, with that “classical” vibe that is very awesome and kvlt in the metal scene!
Listen to this track please! This is really amazing! Don’t forget to check out the whole album!

PrinceWhateverer – Resilience (feat. Sable Symphony & MantaTsubasa) | Metalcore
FINALLY A SONG ABOUT BEST PONY WOOOHOOO
That’s right fillies and gentlecolts, it’s Starlight vs Twilight!
Sweet Celestia, this is amazing! PrinceWhateverer brings us a rock song overloaded with the absolute highest level of hype. Themed around Starlight and Twilight’s climactic battle in the Season 5 finale, this is an instant classic. I truly cannot remember the last time a song got me this excited and hyped. The “pony” part of “pony music” is here in force as well. This is truly a 2012 song with 2017 production.

SDreamExplorerS – Erasing the Enigma | Album | Metal
The Belarussian artist and a hot name in the brony metal music scene SDreamExplorerS, also known as Soul Strings, bring us an album that is mostly inspired by the Swedish Death Metal movement.
The artist on the album description on YouTube says that Swedish Death Metal (Melodic especially) has inspired him to do this album, especially “The Jester Race” by In Flames. As a metal listener, I certainly could hear the “In Flames” influence on this album, particularly on the track “The First Alicorn” that is available on video. This album has incredible riffs, good percussions and great production quality – one of the great qualities I’ve ever listened on the Soul Strings’ discography. The mix between the well performed screams and the low pitched clean vocals are the best part of the album, you will love it. If you are into old-school In Flames, At The Gates, Amon Amarth or Children of Bodom you will certainly like this album! My Little Pony and Old-School Swedish Death Metal – a great mixture of textures and sounds that Soul Strings will give you if you listen to this masterpiece!
Erasing The Enigma is available to download on bandcamp and the whole thing is also available on YouTube.

This track, according to the artist, is divided in several parts that have different compositions and textures. A masterpiece that you really need to listen!
Also this masterpiece came from the Composer Challenge #1: Daybreaker Theme that also included Jyc Row and SDreamExplorerS, who both produced amazing tracks!
Elias Frost – Forgotten North | Folk Metal
Definitely among the most powerful pieces from Elias Frost in my opinion, this new release has a quite interesting and deep concept, and delivers a top-notch musical interpretation over an amazing progression of many wonders. I’m especially a fan of the ice-y plucks and the guitar melodies during the solo, it’s quite emotional, and expertly done too!
