Wizard were one of the first bands to really take Manowar's epic, galloping style and do something significant with it. Not only significant, but good - with the band's third full-length, Bound By Metal, they proved themselves to be at the top of the class in this style, while Manowar themselves were busy releasing godawful shit like The Triumph of Steel and Louder than Hell. I mean, seriously, how hard can writing a simple anthem like 'Thor (The Powerhead)' be? Apparently pretty hard, as Manowar released worthless album after worthless album following Sign of the Hammer. Meanwhile, as Manowar descended from mediocrity into utter uselessness, worship band Wizard began honing their skills, getting better with each album. The debut wasn't very good, and the follow-up was quite patchy, but by their third album they hit a level of consistency that Manowar could only ever pretend to achieve.
Bound by Metal is something of a minor masterpiece, in which everything just fits into place well; song lengths are almost always just right, not too long and bloated, making use of simple and few riffs but riding them until just before they wear out their welcome, something Manowar was able to do only infrequently. The riffs themselves are heavy and vast, providing a lot of atmosphere and simultaneous crushing savagery. The production is quite good as well, with a nice crunchy guitar tone and vocals that are audible but not overbearing. Speaking of vocals, singer Sven D'Anna is quite good - he's not quite on the level of Eric Adams (the only way in which this band falls short of Manowar), but he's pretty damn close in terms of quality, with a proud, soaring tenor that occasionally descends into a vicious growl or ascends into a crazy shriek. He doesn't really sound like any well-known singers I can think of; he has a tone similar to that of the average Greek/Italian epic metal singer, such as Battleroar's Marco Concoreggi. He's definitely more talented and charismatic than any of those vocalists I've heard, though.
Wizard really master the art of repetitive riffing here; normally I can only hear a riff for so long, but the riffs here are SO GOOD that I don't mind hearing them over and over and over; some songs are more repetitive than others, but there's not a single song in which I get tired of any of the riffs. Pharmaceutical analysis. They pick a monster riff, play it proudly, and play it a lot, and that's something that's incredibly difficult to do well, so I certainly applaud them. It's as if the guitarist is like, 'Think we should move to another riff? Nah, I know you love the shit out of this one so we're gonna have D'Anna belt the hell out of the chorus this time and play that riff you love AGAIN!' The soloing is also quite excellent; it's pretty sparing, but when it's there, you definitely appreciate it, as it's very deft and has a great sense of harmony. In fact, I'd say the soloing is on Blind Guardian levels of good - i.e., it's fucking fantastic. This album really is masterfully constructed in pretty much every way.
There's only a couple of songs that are slightly less than excellent here. 'Unicorn' has a pretty lame intro and the chorus is a little bit sub-par, put it's still quite a good song. 'Spill the Blood of Our Enemies' (original song title, eh?) has a slightly-less-awesome-than-usual main riff but it's still pretty solid, while 'Battlefield of Death' is basically a ripoff of Manowar's 'Black Wind, Fire, and Steel,' and both songs are merely solid. However, the other 8 songs all rule completely, and the fact that the 3 lesser songs are still enjoyable is a testament to the excellence of this album. If you're a fan of Manowar or heavy/power metal in general, or are looking for a good place to start with Wizard's discography, this album definitely won't disappoint.
