Trauma – Rapture and Wrath

 Classic metal mixed with power metal has always been a very interesting combination to me, and sadly you just don’t see it as much with all the different kinds of genres that are out there in today’s world, but Trauma has recently gotten back together since breaking up in the 80s, and their comeback album, “Rapture and Wrath”, is something that I could only hope to hear.

The entirety of “Rapture and Wrath” is a great classic/power metal album showcases amazing vocals and melodic guitars that thrum with power shelled with awesome rhythm that’s in every single element from the sound to the style to the goddamn drums.

This 52-minute album is something from an era long past that has to be heard if you’re even remotely a fan of power and/or classic metal because this will take you back to the very roots of power metal and give you a display the likes of which have not been seen in decades.
