In a few words:

Black Symphony is a prog/power band from USA. They have released four albums (until now) and Tears Of Blood is their second effort. Although the band still remains within the bounds of the underground, with this album they should have done the breakthrough. Why? Because they created a very interesting album, with heavy guitars, catchy riffs and strong, as well as easy-to-remember refrains. Furthermore, they gave emphasis to the melody of each song, resulting in a album that is easy to be listen, even by a non-progressive fan. A similar band that appeared in this blog is Evergrey. Lastly, the album is a concept about God's existence. Please, give them a try, they deserve it!

Personal highlights:
" It Remains A Mystery", "Over And Over" and "The Black Symphony (Part II)"
