Project Renegade’s “Ultra Terra” is the newest release by the Greek modern metal band showcasing the band’s growth and musical prowess. As their second full-length release, the album proves that the Greek metal act has refined their sound and created a unique blend of various influences that will resonate with fans of multiple genres.
The “Ultra Terra” takes listeners on a roller-coaster ride through a fusion of modern, groove, melodic, and symphonic metal, with hints of nu-metal elements sprinkled throughout. From the very beginning, becomes evident that the Project Renegade have produced and are presenting an album tailored for live performances. The band expertly weaves together these elements to create a cohesive and accessible musical package.
Now, there is no denying that at the forefront of the album is the exceptional vocal talent of Marianna. Her clean vocals are both captivating and powerful, bringing an emotional depth to each track. In moments of intensity, harsher shouts add an edge and bite to the music, enhancing the overall impact of the songs.
The songwriting is a major highlight of “Ultra Terra.” Each track is well-crafted, with catchy hooks and melodies that immediately grab the listener’s attention. Project Renegade blend the diverse singing of Marriana with their solid rhythmic section of heavy, groove-enriched guitar riffs, solid, beefy bass lines and elegant yet powerful, and full of fire drumming. The symphonic and electronic elements are tastefully incorporated, adding an extra layer of depth and atmosphere to the compositions.
The album offers a diverse mix of tracks, ranging from energetic and crowd-pleasing anthems to more atmospheric and emotionally charged pieces. Tracks like “Bloodwitch” and “Token” deliver a heavy punch with their driving and powerful rhythmic focused style and infectious hooks, while songs like “Apex” and “Civil Unrest” showcase the band’s talent for crafting soaring, melodic moments that stay with the listener long after the album has ended.
In conclusion, “Ultra Terra” is an impressive sophomore effort from Project Renegade. With its top-notch vocals, memorable melodies, and influences drawn from a diverse musical pallet, “Ultra Terra” is bound to leave a lasting impression and solidify Project Renegade’s place as a rising force in the metal scene.
