### Saint Deamon: In shadows lost from the brave

#### 06/02/08 || Lord K Philipson

A few weeks ago I entered Club Satin in Örebro (the same place where we do our Club Aska events). On stage were some fags, playing some very competent (power) metal. I kinda dug what I saw as far as professionalism goes, they had it all together and you could tell they spent more than 2 days with rehearsals (and about 3 seconds coming up with the band name, as always these days). After the gig I ran into Ronny who used to drum with the abomination that was Dionysus. He asked me if I saw the gig and I thought he had completely lost it. What fucken gig? It turns out Saint Deamon is his new band (didn’t see Ronny behind the drums nor did I pay attention to the fact that Noby from Dionysus was doing bass on stage). That explained it, no wonder it sounded competent and all that jizz, these guys know how to create cheesy metal – there’s no two ways about it. Let it be known that it sounded better live than what it does on record. Then again, I’m sober (kind of anyways) when I’m typing this, I’m hardly ever sober when I’m at Satin. That would be against the rules.

Saint Deamon is a buffet of cheese and well-produced metal. It doesn’t sound like Dionysus to me, which is nice, but it’s also not anything you never heard before. This is metal by the book and if you are hoping for surprises – look elsewhere. If your passion is weak and silly lyrics, happy riffs, nice guitar solos, high pitched vocals and well-arranged songs, Saint Deamon is for you.

Let’s just say I give credit to the bitches for knowing how to do this, but as far as keeping this album and listen to it on a regular basis… I do not fucken think so. But I’m keeping it becoz it’s an album full of fine metal (with nods to Yngwie and Judas at times) and I’ll definitely give it a spin or 2 every now and then.

To finish this off, I’m hoping that one of these days Ronny will grow a pair of fucken balls so he can start playing music that is worshiped by something else but vaginas. Nonetheless, this is a fine metal effort if you can get thru the smörgås-jävla-bord of clichés, cheese and syrup. Oh, and the incredibly shitty cover, not to forget. A fucken ship?! Yeah, I know there’s some gay-connection to the band name or whatever, but hey, ships are courtesy of Running Wild.

6/10.
