SÖLICITÖR - Spectral Devastation LP (RUST)

After a 2019 EP composed of pure speed metal, Sölicitör’s sound has evolved into a delightful blend of classic styles that can be tough to nail down with a single genre tag — much like their label mates, Skelator. The band have added thrash and traditional metal accents to their speed metal base, and the result is Spectral Devastation: eight tracks and 39 minutes of blistering 80s majesty.

But the aspect of Sölicitör’s sound that sets them apart from most new olde bands is the voice of Amy Lee Carlson. This lady has some serious pipes. Picture what might possibly result from Heart’s Ann Wilson, Savatage’s Jon Oliva, and the Metal God Rob Halford himself somehow combining their essences into one through some sort of Satanic ritual. Carlson is an incredible talent, and her powerful presence immediately elevates Sölicitör’s already good material to greatness.
