CD REVIEW Tarot

Band : Tarot
Album title : Gravity Of Light
Label : Nuclear Blast Records
Distributor : Nuclear Blast - Pias
Release Date : 23/04/2010
Release : CD

Founding fathers of Tarot are Marco and Zachary Hietala. a band founded long before Marco got famous with Nightwish.  This album is already the eight'album they've released.  Already, since there's not much time left besides Nightwish.
Vocals in Tarot are handled by Marco, or by Tomi "Tuple" Salmela, and this guarantees variation. Marco's voice we all know of course, but Tomi's effort is also appreciated, his voice more going towards Ozzy.

It's clear that Finnish people have an altogether better taste for music, since this album was, after only two weeks, charted at number 2 over there.  OK, I know it's a country with more reindeer than humans, but nevertheless, at least over there this type of music sells.

A very good effort this is, with one of the best songs being the single "I Walk Forever".

92/100
