Adramelch's "Irae Melanox" isn't power metal
Adramelch's 1988 debut album certainly contains elements of power metal (particularly through the back end of the tracklisting) however there's a lot more of it that simply sounds like fully-fledged progressive metal so I feel that a dual tagging is unnecessary. For that reason, I'd like to see "Irae Melanox" removed from The Guardians & the power metal genre while maintaining its position in The Infinite under progressive metal.
This nomination has been posted in the Hall of Judgement.
I've given this Adramelch album some listening and a review to test out my strength in the progressive power metal I once loved, and to be honest, I'm not sure if fully-fledged progressive metal would be what I would call this offering. There are a few full-on power metal tracks with speedy Iron Maiden-infused riffing and wide-ranged singing, and sure the rest of this album has the early progressive metal of Queensryche/Fates Warning, but even the more progressive tracks are as melodic as power metal in some sections. So I might have to vote NO for this Hall entry.
