Megaton Sword - Might & Power (2023)

This second album from Megaton Sword, aptly called Might & Power confirms after Blood Hails Steel - Steel Hails Fire, that indeed in the realm of traditional heavy metal that they are among the ones with the most might & power. They deliver again a masterpiece of old school true metal with a slight doom flavour. Recommended!

Megaton Sword - Blood Hails Steel - Steel Hails Fire (2020)

Megaton Sword, from Switzerland, delivers with their first album (after an EP) Blood Hails Steel - Steel Hails Fire one of the best recent traditional/true heavy metal, evoking Manowar/Manilla Road, but also - it's 2020 - with a hint of traditional doom metal (let's say Candlemass or Pallbearer). True metal is usually not my bread and butter, but I really enjoy this album and recommend it.
