The ninth album from this band from Peru.
The band is a quintet with a lineup of drums, bass, quena, guitars, keyboards and vocals.
I have reviewed most of their albums for # 1 and # 2 of this blog (see links below the logo, top of the page). Their mix of Latin-American folk rock and metal has always been good and I have previously compared them with the likes of Thin Lizzy.
On Lines Of Nasca, we still get some pretty strong Latin-American flutes. A flute called quena.
And the quena that is all what remains of the folk rock.
The music here is a mix of heavy and power metal. There is a lot of German power metal here.
The inclusion of the Iron Maiden song Afraid To Shoot Strangers is a bit of an oddity. Then again, the band has moved in and occupied a lot of their territory throughout his forty minutes long album.
I am by no means a power metal fan and when the power metal is even pretty generic, I do not find much to be impressed about on this album. The vocals is good and the quena is slightly refreshing. That is the best I can say about this album. That and a pretty good Iron Maiden cover.
