Serpentine Fire

The band formed in 2005. Hailing from Macedonia of all off-the-beaten track places, Serpentine Fire (no relation to the Earth, Wind & Fire
song of the same name) play a strikingly and well-produced concoction of mid- to uptempo traditional metal with subtle thrash underpinnings (if you’ll pardon the oxymoron-like couplet “subtle thrash”). In other words, this is somewhat akin to “power metal” as it was known in the mid-eighties: the chunk-riffed median between plain ol’ heavy metal and all-out thrash.
