Audiovision play a familiar style of Swedish Melodic Power Metal in the vein of Lion’s Share, Hammerfall, and Dream Evil. There are plenty of shredding guitars, melodic choruses, strong, soaring vocals and headbanging tempos. Songs like “Invited”, “Keep The Fire Burning”, “We Are Not Alone”, and “We Will Go” are fine examples of this. They don’t deliver anything new, but that’s not the point of Audiovision. The point is to bring the Metal, and bring it they do. Power ballad “Fruit Of Love” has a cool Scorpions vibe about it ala “Still Loving You”. There is also a decent cover/reworking of Stryper‘s “The Way” which is also indicitive of the album’s lyrical content.

So what Audiovision offer us is a classic sounding Melodic Metal record packed with all the musical elements that lover’s of the genre will expect. Fans of any of the bands I mentioned here should no doubt enjoy it. It’s very “up front” Christian lyrical stance may end up alienating some Metal fans, but it will no doubt gather some new ones in the process.
