Long gone are the days that an Italian Metal album was a rarity, these days not a week seems to go by without yet another Italian release. This time it’s Pleonaxia, if I look at the meaning of the word Pleonexia, I am told it’s “the insatiable desire to have what rightfully belongs to others“….. The band themselves claim that what they serve is philosophical metal, a mixture of classic heavy metal, some epic influences and earthly honest hard rock… That’s not what I am hearing to be honest, I hear a very annoying drum sound, a vocalist with his spandex just a bit to tight a bunch of too long tracks executed in such a manner that they make me nervous…. Never a good sign… one of the lines in the 3th track is “we must learn from our mistakes”. I suggest the band takes this to heart for a next album.
