Breaker – Breaker Review

Upon pressing the play button, the listener is greeted by the opening track, Breaker, which presents an invigorating instrumental introduction accompanied by soaring vocals.

As the listener progresses to the second track, Babylon, and ultimately to the concluding piece, Liberty, they are taken on a lyrical journey that delves into themes of freedom, rebellion, and personal challenges.

Breaker is a fruit of art journey that captivates the listener with its powerful sound. Transporting the listener to a bygone era, blending the raw energy of classic heavy metal with the vibrant essence of the New Wave of Traditional Heavy Metal. The music echoes the spirit of legendary English bands, with vocal prowess and intricate compositions reminiscent of Saxon. It also channels the fierce energy of Canadian heavy metal band, Skull Fist and the power and precision of German stalwarts like Accept and Judas Priest are known for.

Breaker’s music is not just a nod to the past; it’s a revival of the heavy metal spirit that continues to inspire generations. With their self-titled EP, they invite listeners to experience a sonic adventure that is both timeless and fresh. In just three tracks and a brief ten-minute span, Breaker delivers a fruit of art experience that grips the listener from the very first note to the final chord. This concise yet impactful release showcases a potent blend of instrumental prowess and raw energy, ensuring that every second is filled with intensity. The album’s brief duration is a testament to its ability to pack a punch, leaving a lasting impression that resonates long after the music fades.

At the heart of Breaker lies a fruit of art devilmanship, with Caleb Beal, formerly of Skull Fist, laying down fast and aggressive-heavy riffs and bass lines that form the foundation of the band’s sound. Caleb‘s skilful riffs and solos are complemented by Rider Johnson‘s dynamic drumming, which adds a layer of complexity to the tracks. Furthermore, Terje Fiskvatn‘s commanding vocals soar above the instrumentation, infusing the music with a fierce energy. 

Finally, the flawless production quality of Breaker‘s musical spectrum, comprising instrumental, music, and vocal compositions, enhances the traditional composition that defines this potent release. End of the day, Breaker might be short, but it certainly packs a punch, especially if you love your classic metal.

The album comes to an end with the last song, Liberty. We want to give a shoutout to GlobMetal Promotions for letting us review Breaker and their self-titled EP, Breaker. Now, we’re going to wrap it up by talking about the final three sins and concluding the review.
