Aqua album Product Description
It goes without saying that the vast majority of metal bands will never feature Milton Nascimento or any other major Brazilian pop star on one of their albums. But Angra did exactly that when, in 2004, they featured none other than Nascimento himself on "Late Redemption" (from the Temple of Shadows album). And the fact that Angra, like Sepultura, have been willing to incorporate Brazilian elements at times has made them stand out in the metal world. But while the brutal Sepultura are known for alternative metal and thrash metal, Angra have favored a melodic power metal/thrash metal approach -- and that outlook generally serves them well on Aqua. This 2010 release is mildly uneven, but when Aqua really gets going, the results are quite satisfying. There aren't a lot of bands out there that have been influenced by Queensr˙che, Iron Maiden, and Helloween as well as Dream Theater, Kansas, Yes, and Marillion but could also tell you who Ivan Lins, Gilberto Gil, and Djavan are; Angra, however, really are a band with power metal, prog, and Brazilian pop influences, and while Aqua doesn't beat the listener over the head with those Brazilian pop influences, they can definitely be found if one is paying close attention. ...See Full Description
