Who would have believed that Greece has one of the strongest and one of the most fervervent markets for heavy metal in the World. Not only is it a required destination for any band touring Europe but many home grown bands achieve attention from fans and the local metal media. It is from this hot bed that WASTEFALL emerged to create two superb progressive metal albums for the Greek label SLEASZY RIDER RECORDS. SENSORY RECORDS has now signed WASTEFALL world wide for the release of their third album “Self Exile.” While WASTEFALL has often been compared to Sweden's PAIN OF SALVATION, their music is much more aggressive and dynamic. The band’s desire to take their music to the next level led them to Denmark to work with noted producer TOMMY HANSEN (HELLOWEEN, PRETTY MAIDS, WUTHERING HEIGHTS). The results are quite evident – “Self Exile” retains all of the band’s trademarks but the music is heavier and more immediate. When you hear “Self Exile” Pain Of Salvation will instantly spring to mind but also PANTERA, vintage METALLICA, and NEVERMORE as well. This is an album that has more than enough complexity and passion for the prog fan but is also heavy enough for any or metal fan.
