Synopsis

Product Description

A different kind of metal: The vocal genii of VAN CANTO present their back catalog including previously unreleased bonus material! Renouncing the usual assistance from electric guitars and keyboards, Van Canto performs the compositions a cappella. Only a lone drummer lends his support to the virtuous vocal acrobats making the resulting 100% metal sound even more amazing. "Hero" includes an exclusive unreleased bonus track, as well as two video clips to "Speed of Light" and "Wishmaster", and an unreleased clip to the track "Kings of Metal".

"the title pretty much sums it up. you truly have to listen to them to fully appreciate just how great they are though. so, do yourself a favor"

Excellent follow up album.

"Van Canto's 2nd album "Hero" is an excellent follow up to their first album "A Storm To Come". The acapella band is amazing in their ability to cover quintesential heavy metal songs like "Kings of Metal" and "Wishmaster". I have this album in heavy rotation on my iPod. Though it is a difficult album to get in the US, if more people order it, I bet their label will release it here."
