RYGEL – Revolution

Rygel hails from Brazil and was formed in 2000. It seems since 2000 that the chances loom heavily that any band spawned out of Brazil and other South American countries play precision-based Power Metal a la Angra. Not the case with Rygel, who plays a blend of Thrash, Death, and Modern Metal … nearly the polar opposite of their geographical contemporaries.

Rygel’s latest is entitled Revolution, but unfortunately there’s nothing particularly revolutionary contained within. If you like any of the above subgenre’s Rygel is worth checking out, but chances are you’re going to find their material run of the mill.
