This tune nicely combines fantasy atmosphere with distorted metal guitars. We have a cool piano like in many fantasy tunes and then rock drums and solo guitar start to play; after some time we hear a great fast, heavy rock riffs and solos, which are fantastic. I truly enjoyed the way the tune is costructed - there are changes of pace, slow solos/melodies and fast ones, with no unnecessary repetition. Every couple of seconds it offers something new, it just doesn't let you get bored from the very beginning to the end. This song has everything a good song should have. Really nice work. Generally, the song sounds very good if we forget about some technical drawbacks of tracked music that isn't supposed to take 5 megs... The solo guitar sometimes plays at VERY high pitches - the fact itself is great, but it is loud relatively to the other instruments and for a while I was a bit afraid it would damage my ears (especially the right one)... It is a commonly known fact that guitar samples can be played at a very narrow range of pitches - well, here they cross the border of realistic sound from time to time. Great variety of samples were used here - guitars, horns, synth pianos - anything you want. And everything fits the tune well.
