Note: Reviews are graded from 0-5, anything higher or not showing is from our old style. Scores, however, do not reveal the important features. The written review that accompanies the ratings is the best source of information regarding the music on our site. Reviewing is opinionated, not a qualitative science, so scores are personal to the reviewer and could reflect anything from being technically brilliant to gloriously cheesy fun.

Demos and independent releases get some slack since the bands are often spent broke supporting themselves and trying to improve. Major releases usually have big financial backing, so they may be judged by a heavier hand. All scores can be eventually adjusted up or down by comparison of subsequent releases by the same band. We attempt to keep biases out of reviews and be advocates of the consumer without the undo influence of any band, label, management, promoter, etc.

The best way to determine how much you may like certain music is to listen to it yourself.

Overall this is solid European power metal
Greek act Diviner are comprised of current and ex-members of Innerwish and have released their debut album 'Fallen Empires' via Ulterium Records. The band use biblical lyrics to convey some apocalyptic imagery within the songs. The religious overtones are positive in nature and aren't out of place with this label (Audiovision, Rob Rock, Theocracy). Overall this is solid European power metal that isn't a far cry from Mystic Prophecy and Nightmare.
