This band is incredible Leigh!!! This is probably the best new band I’ve heard in the last 15 years!!! Thanks so much for this video. The singer does sound like Bruce, the music at times reminds me of Iron Maiden, but there’s enough differences also that they aren’t clones of Iron Maiden!!! I’m buying this album for sure!!! 🎶🎶🎶🎶
That's Raphael natural singing voice. His tone is amazingly similar to Bruce's, but we also have to give him credit for having mastered the technique. He was born with the voice, but created his musical talent. I see the bands Sound somewhere in between classic maiden and mid eighties power metal
In the still of the night I hear Raphael singing, sniffing around your door. In the still of the night I feel my heart beating heavy Telling me a gotta hear more.
What this actually does, is keep old school metal alive and it is one of the best bands to come along in a very long time. Though it has major similarities to Maiden, it is still something amazingly fresh. I love it.
One of the best things of this album is the guitar solos, totally inspired, instrumental reminds me classical metal bands like Accept, Saxon, despite being Maiden's contemporary they sound totally different from them.
At first i thought it was bruce dickinson side project.hearing his voice without video youll think it was bruce dickinson singing this guy need support from fans.all over metal the world.
It s hard to survive of music, especially of heavy metal in Brazil. I really hope that they could do it and start a world tour when the pandemic gets lower
I finally got around to some new bands on the channel. Of the 3 reaction videos to these guys I love this song the most. Love Raphael's voice, the tone is exactly like Dickinson, but more in the power metal vein, or early Maiden stuff. Doesn't bother me at all, Haven't liked a lot of Maiden stuff since Brave New World so this is quite refreshing for me. Band doesn't sound musically like Maiden like the singer does. Anyways great reviews!
Raphael Mendes e o cara, gosto muito deste vocalista, a influencia de Bruce é clara, e agradeço por ter um vocal parecido com Bruce. Iron Forever. melhor banda do mundo; abraço;
Love this song. I do agree with you Lee. The sound is classic heavy metal but not heavely into a typical Maiden song. We should stop to compare this with that. Yes, he is more Bruce than Bruce (purely due an age factor) but what can he do? The song is solid, high standard songwriting and powerful production. Good on him and good on Frontiers for the investment... Better than the previous single. Lee, you were lucky... not too many exotic Brazilian names this time 😉 Cheers Max 🇦🇺
I think its an amazing song i think if maiden someday had to bring a new vocalist for some reason they would take that singer ... His voice is ao similar to bruces voice and thats so great.... The band will have a good future i guess... Btw i love your shows man... you have similar taste in music as i do Can i communicate with you? Thanx
The high notes don't sound exactly like Dickinson's because Bruce is a tenor and Raphael is a baritone, don't you hear the difference? The vocalist from the link below sings like Bruce and has a tenor scale: czcams.com/video/f_jvbBzzG1I/video.html
Similarities apart, the song speaks for itself.
This band is great.
Up the Icons!

It depends what you like..for this kind of 80s metal id say this…for nwobhm id say haunt…if you like the 80s glam/hard rock crazy lixx
Rex Smetzer check Raphael Mendes channel. There you can listen if Bruce Dickinson sang for other bands. Amazing!
This is one of the best traditional Heavy Metal albums I've listened for the last years. A very pleasant surprise.

Cracking honest review mate, This lot are absolutely brilliant..... The similarity to Bruce's voice is scary..... Bloody cracking tune
BRAVISSIMO!!! Meu irmão RAPHAEL MENDES BRASILEIRO
cara eu sinto um orgulho desse Mano, ano que vem só dar icon of sin
Killer track, and album overall! Clouds Over Gotham is fuckin epic!!
I do think that Icon of Sin sounds like one of Bruce Dickinson's solo albums.
sounds like bruce solo cds !!!.......great !!
Brazil here man. Thank you so much for this video. Raphael is a great singer.
In the still of the night I hear Raphael singing, sniffing around your door.
In the still of the night I feel my heart beating heavy Telling me a gotta hear more.
I just love this band. I heard samples off of itunes. An believe me when I say this is gonna be the album of the year,
Still of the Night!!! I thought the exact same thing!!!! 😆

I've noticed some sublayer of Judas Priest in this song as well.
It s hard to survive of music, especially of heavy metal in Brazil. I really hope that they could do it and start a world tour when the pandemic gets lower
I thought this was a band with Bruce as a guest singer at first😄

Not much of Iron Maiden musically which I think is a great thing. They're not just a blatant rip off.
Son buenísimos me encantan 🤩
