SONS OF THUNDER
Load, Aim, Fire
 
 
Christian metal from Stockholm Sweden, Sons Of Thunder walk along the fence of power metal and the tuned down 90's metal style.

According to the their biography, "The music that we play is Thunder Metal with lyrics that is intended to worship Jesus Christ. This is a style of music we call: "Metal Praise"". The lyrics are quite positive and the band is adamant in their strong Christian beliefs.  

"Load Aim Fire" sounds like a power metal version of Prong's "Snap Your Fingers, Snap Your Neck". The songs contains a cool break into a long guitar solo by singer/guitarist Michael Hjelte.

Stylistically "I'll Be There" would be right at home on Pantera's "Cowboys From Hell" or Fight's debut CD as would "Atomic Power Praise".  

Sons Of Thunder sound is quite thick for a 3 piece band and they are not afraid to mix diverse styles into their songs. This diversity is especially evident on "Exalt Him" which has acoustic fretwork, a voice box and some very heavy electric riffs.

Sons Of Thunder:
Michael Hjelte (guitar/vocals)
Klas Pettersson (bass guitar) 
Daniel Mouton (drums)
