Stellar Veil are a Melodic Hard Rock band who were formed in 2021.From Athens Greece. They were formed by band members who departed from the Melodic Hard Rock band Hideaway. The band wanted to combine a unique sound of heavier Hard Rock with the melodic finesse of AOR. Stellar Veils sound is described as heavier than the traditional sounding AOR,with it sounding more melodic than Classic Metal. “Calling The Hearts Of The World” showcases Stellar Veil's 80's influences with a modern contemporary twist

Lions Pride Music have released numerous good album releases over the years with “Calling The Hearts Of The World” been no exception. Stellar Veil open this album with hard hitting momentum “Safely Chained” with its rich synth intertwined with a powerful melody,powerful vocals and a molten guitar solo.”To Mend A Broken Heart” is another solid track it has that modern European melodic sound & melody with the drum beats,chugging crunchy guitar riffs adding the nostalgic element”Diamonds To Dust” is melodic,also heavy in parts but with the right balance,the key work is superb the vocals from Jon Soti soar gloriously, just superb.”Feel The Pain” has a strong bass and drums presence,another great track full of power & energy.”Thousand And One Nights” is majestic,the superb key chord changes,guitar runs,strong anthemic chorus and again strong vocals.”Sign Of The Times” is a more hard rock number,infectious guitar riff,a bit more groove/funkiness to the melody.”Cross The Line” is the weakest track on the album,it's still good but more laid back lacking that energy in the chorus hard hitting melody is lacking,less momentum than the previous tracks. The almost spoken intro that introduces “Calling The Wild” but that is just the prelude to a powerful break vocally in the verses and the bridge with great guitar work,the ending is synth laden and piano touches.”We Stand” is just a pure modern European heavy melodic rock track,powerful,atmospheric with an anthemic chorus very much has that H.E.A.T. Style sound which ends this album with that high energy it started with.

Stellar Veil have produced a great debut album in the style of music they wanted to achieve. It is punchy,has bags of energy,anthemic,heavy and melodic with the perfect mix of 80's and modern music touches. The production is bright,clear with great clarity,the vocals and musicianship is on the money. Highly recommended a very strong release for a debut album excellent stuff!
