1994년 데모 Midnight Resistance로 좋은 평가를 얻어낸 Labyrinth는 당시 신생레이블이던 Underground Symphony와 계약을 맺고 95년 EP앨범 Piece Of Time을 제작한다. Pick Up Records로 이적하여 데뷔작 No Limits를 발표하였으며, 이때까지 보컬리스트로 활동한 Joe Terry(Fabio Lione)와 드럼, 키보드등의 멤버교체가 이루어져 2집인 본작 Return To Heaven Denied을 내놓는다. Fabio Lione가 재직했던 밴드라 Rhapsody와 곧잘 비교되곤 하는데, 연주력, 작곡력등 모든게 갖춰졌지만 확실한 밴드의 개성을 확립하지 못한 '미궁'에 빠진 듯한 음악을 들려주어 안타깝게 여겨진다. Progressive Metal과 Melodic Power Metal을 오고가는 Labyrinth 디스코그라피의 정점에 해당하는 본 앨범은 밴드의 위상을 최고조로 끌어올린 명반으로 빠른 스피드위에 휘몰아치는 멜로디의 향연을 만끽할 수 있을 것이다.

málokedy sa stáva, aby po vydaní skvelého debutu so špičkovým spevákom (Fabio Lione) a jeho následnom odchode, bol ďalší album ešte lepší a s nováčikom - dovtedy málo známym spevákom. Roberto Tiranti (Rob Tyrant) predviedol na nováčika výborný vokálny melodický výkon. Pozadu neostávajú ani gitary - s výborným riffovaním, prípadne melodickými vy... Read More

Labÿrinth je na melodickej metalovej scéne celkom zavedené meno, pričom od návratu gitaristu Olaf Thörsen -a (inak Carlo Andrea Magnani) do skupiny sa vybrali smerom najúspešnejšej a aj najlepšej etapy kapely. Na novinke kombinujú Melodický Prog./Power Metal, a hudobne (nie nápadmi) je to blízke ich najlepšiemu albumu z roku 1998. Ďalšími základnými "kameňm... Read More
