DREAMTALE – Everlasting Flame (2022)
While not achieving the success of some contemporaries, Finnish melodic metal / sympho / progressive / power rockers DREAMTALE are among the best in these genres. Founded in 1999 by songwriter/guitarist Rami Keränen, the band released its first three albums through Spinefarm during 2002-2005, gaining listeners from Finland to Japan.
During 20+ years Dreamtale has been doing live shows in and outside of Finland, even China, and worked with well known artists such as Marko Hietala, Jarkko Ahola and Timo Tolkki. In 2019 the band refreshed its sound with the addition of a second vocalist, Nitte Valo (ex-Battle Beast).
Now 2022 DREAMTALE are releasing their anticipated eighth album “Everlasting Flame” where we can hear an updated sound and production: there’s more accessible melodies, electronics and synths on most songs giving a fresh color to the music, and as extra the band has re-recorded thir best songs with this new sonic design, including, IMHO, DREAMTALE ‘s best song ever; the melodic power ballad ‘Lady Dragon’…
