 | | Description: | DYING VICTIMS PRODUCTIONS is proud to present SIGNIFICANT POINT??s highly anticipated
debut album, Into the Storm, on CD and vinyl LP formats.
Hailing from Japan, SIGNIFICANT POINT was formed by guitarists Kazuki Kuwagaki and Gou
Takeuchi in March 2011. Holding high the banner of old-school speed/heavy metal, they
started playing live shows in Tokyo. Through a lot of member changes, SIGNIFICANT POINT
released their first demo, Attacker!, in 2014 and the Live at Tokyo CD in 2017. In 2018, the
two-song EP Attacker was released on 7? vinyl by France??s Inferno Records, and it received a
good reaction in the underground scene.
Itormentor (drums) and Kazuhiro Watanabe (bass) joined in 2016 and 2018, respectively, and
the current lineup of SIGNIFICANT POINT was at last finalized. In 2019, they started
recording their first album. With great help from George Itoh (Risingfall / Military Shadow), it
was completed in September 2020 after a year and a half of effort.
Fittingly bearing the title Into the Storm, SIGNIFICANT POINT??s debut album is indeed a
monsoon of heavy metal mayhem, spanning traditional and epic styles to speed metal and
even early power metal. The band live and breathe heavy metal in all its classicist forms, and
the quintet know the intrinsic power of hooks and especially variety, both of which are found
bountifully across Into the Storm. With enviable ease, SIGNIFICANT POINT marry masterful
execution to high drama whilst never losing the importance of actual songs ?? in other words,
no style over substance here. Truly, you will NOT be able to get any of these 10 anthems
outta your head, and large credit is due to the poetic dual-guitar interplay of Kuwagaki and
Takeuchi; dazzling to say the very least, their leads and solos are almost another singing
voice. Which is to take nothing away from the rest of the band, who bring together melodic
bass-work, tastefully propulsive drumming, and the high-pitched metal-warrior vocals of
George Itoh to create a veritable orchestra of sound.
While the bulk of the lyrics are in English, the unique tonal qualities of Japanese lend Into the
Storm comparisons to Loudness?? early, proto-epic metal albums like Devil Soldier and The
Law of Devil??s Land. But casting one??s metallic gaze further across continents (and decades),
SIGNIFICANT POINT significantly point to myriad elements of such legends as Grim Reaper,
Metal Church, Sinner, Cloven Hoof, and Omen on to the culter likes of Shok Paris, Liege Lord,
Sortilege, Agent Steel, and Savage Grace, all with a firm grounding in the classics of
Scorpions, Rainbow, Judas Priest, UFO, and Iron Maiden. Any way you slice it, the katana of
SIGNIFICANT POINT is deadly, so prepare to go Into the Storm! - |  | | Manufacturer No.: |
