Our Take

SAVATAGE - The Wake Of Magellan

Sailing into uncharted waters, SAVATAGE's The Wake Of Magellan is a rollicking rollercoaster of a ride through the high seas of power metal. This epic tale of a ship's voyage and the trials and tribulations of its crew is as bombastic as it is intricate, with soaring guitar solos and thunderous drums that will have you banging your head in no time.

The band's signature mix of classical influences and heavy metal riffs is on full display here, with tracks like "Turns To Me" and "Another Way" showcasing their knack for crafting complex, emotionally resonant music that packs a serious punch. Frontman Zachary Stevens' powerful vocals soar above the chaos, guiding the listener through the tempestuous waves of sound with ease.

But don't be fooled by the album's grandiose themes and larger-than-life sound – there's a heart of gold beneath the bombast. Tracks like the haunting "Anymore" and the poignant "Morning Sun" reveal a more introspective side to SAVATAGE, showcasing their ability to balance power with vulnerability in equal measure.

So jump aboard, mateys, and set sail with SAVATAGE on The Wake Of Magellan – it's a wild, unpredictable journey that's sure to leave you breathless and begging for more. Fair winds and following seas, metalheads. Fair winds and following seas.

About the artist

Savatage

Formed in Tarpon Springs, Florida in 1979, Savatage is a band that defies all traditional genre boundaries. With their unique blend of progressive metal, power metal, and even elements of classical music, Savatage has carved out a distinct niche in the music industry. Led by brothers Jon and Criss Oliva, Savatage burst onto the scene in the 1980s with their debut album, "Sirens." Known for their technical proficiency and intricate song structures, the band quickly gained a dedicated fanbase around the world. Throughout their career, Savatage has released a string of critically acclaimed albums, including "Gutter Ballet" and "Streets: A Rock Opera." Their ambitious concept albums and theatrical live performances have cemented their reputation as one of the most innovative and boundary-pushing bands in the metal scene. But it hasn't always been smooth sailing for Savatage. Tragedy struck in 1993 when Criss Oliva was killed in a car accident, leaving a void in the band that would never truly be filled. Despite this devastating loss, Savatage soldiered on, releasing several more albums and continuing to push the boundaries of their music. With their blend of shredding guitars, soaring vocals, and epic storytelling, Savatage is a band that refuses to be pigeonholed. Whether you're a die-hard metalhead or just someone looking for something a little bit different, Savatage has something for everyone. So crank up the volume, throw up the horns, and let Savatage take you on a wild and unpredictable musical journey.
