I can't believe, given that this is a DT forum, that there has been no love for Angra being tossed around. A fantastic progressive/power metal band hailing from Brazil, they incorporate Latin music with incredibly proficient technical guitar work for a crazy and somewhat addictive listening experience.
Also, KIKO LOUREIRO! is one of the best guitarists ever, but is almost never brought up due to Angra's virtually non-existent fanbase in North America.
Discuss.
-
I only have one of their albums (Holy Land?) but its pretty good.
-
Fan here.
Their music is great. I love Temple of Shadows, and i was reading some news and i don't know if replacing Aquiles (an awesome drummer) will work for the next album.
-

I'd suggest getting Temple of Shadows immediately. Holy Land doesn't have anything on it.
In fact, I'd say that their Matos era stuff is a lot more inconsistent then the post-Matos work. Their last three albums (Rebirth, Temple of Shadows, and Aurora Consurgens, as well as the EP Hunters and Prey) have all been excellent, but their first couple are split heavily between great tracks and mediocre tracks.
-
My favorite Angra song is "Scream Your Heart Out"
-
I love Angra. Temple of Shadows is definitely my favorite album.
I got my brother in law into this band, after he became disenchanted with the fact that Dragonforce plays like shit live. I played him Sonata Arctica and Angra, and now his love for power metal is renewed
-
I am glad that I'm not alone in thinking Temple of Shadows is their best album. I think it's an absolute masterpiece, and it gives me chills every time I hear it. I also think Angels Cry and Rebirth are particularly strong.
As far as sophisticated, catchy, and emotional power metal goes, it doesn't get much better than Angra. I hope they will return someday!
-
I have no excuse for only owning one Angra album. I will remedy this soon.
-
I've been listening to them for a few years. I really like Temple of Shadows and Aurora Consergens. Felipe Andreoli (sp?) is such a great bass player, and Kiko on guitar. And I really like the singer.
-
I can't stand Temple of Shadows and Aurora Consergens but 'Rebirth' is such a great album. I love the track 'Unholy Wars'. Definately one of their best tracks.
-
Holy Land is a nice album, but the other two Matos ones are somewhat less interesting. Their music really improved when Falaschi joined, his voice has a lot more power and the musical style changed to match that. Their latest album was a bit of a step down, but Temple of Shadows is easily one of my favourite power metal albums!
-
Temple of Shadows is definitely their best album. One of the best albums of that genre.
EDIT: This thread made me want to listen to Spread Your Fire. Such a catchy good song.
-
Such an underrated band, I love em.
Check out a song from their new album. Has quite a Angels Cry/Holy Land vibe.

-
great band. Holy land and temple of shadows probably their best albums. IDK what do you guys think about their latest album, Aqua.
-
Andre. Matos.
-
I'm not real big on covers, but they do one of the best covers of "Kashmir" I've ever heard!! They are tremendous!
-
I finally got a copy of Temple of Shadows recently. It is an amazing album. Waiting Silence is the best song on it, but they're all great :hat
-
I was really happy with Aqua, but it's not a heavy album whatsoever so I can see many metalheads being disappointed. Half of the tracks are ballads, but I think songs like "Ashes," "Spirit of the Air," and "Lease of Life," rank among their most beautiful material. And "Weakness of a Man" and "Awake from Darkness" are extremely fun and catchy. It's an interesting follow-up to the dark and aggressive Aurora Consergens.

Waiting Silence is easily a top 3 Angra song, it is simply amazing!!

Yeah, Aqua was no where near as bad as what the reviews made it out to be. I didn't mind it actually. Definitely a 180 to Aurora Consergens, which by the way was brilliant.
-
I didn't get Aqua. I love Temple of Shadows and Aurora Consergens, but Aqua just doesn't feel right. I think it has ot do with its pristene productions.
-
I'm going to be the one that goes against the stream and say I like the Matos era a lot better. I love Angel's cry and Fireworks. I really like the new era lot, great albums, great songs, but the first 3 are my favorite. Also the Painkiller cover kicks ass!
-
Amazing band. Temple of Shadows is one of my favorite albums ever and Holy Land gets a pretty high spot too in my book.
One of my big complaints is Angra live, though. Edu's not a good live singer :lol I saw them live and lots of live videos and the man just doesn't get it right. He can't seem to be in tone most of the time.
Andre Matos, on the other hand... :hat

I disagree here. I saw them live with Edu and he did a really good job. He was not able to hit every note though. For what I've seen from videos, Matos is not that good live. Then again, I might have seen different videos than you.
-
Maybe he has gotten better. Then again, I saw them in the Temple of Shadows tour which was a few years ago. I really hope he has gotten better.
-
i saw them in the Aurora Consurgance tour. So maybe he is getting better. Let's hope so. I'll get to see them again in a couple of months :laugh:
-
That's amazing :D I think they brought Carolina IV back to the setlists, which is an amazing thing. (It's my favorite Angra song)
:metal
-
I only own Holy Lands and Fireworks but I love both...not a big fan of the newer material though

Those two albums are great. As for the new material, you should give Temple of Shadows another try. :tup

The Rebirth live DVD is fantastic. It came with my copy of Temple of Shadows at no extra cost. :tup

1 store I went to had Temple of Shadows with the DVD for $28.00 and then in the DVD section they had just the DVD for $48.00!! :lol
-
for band which almost 20 years in carreer, too bad they only had "Rebirth Live in Sao Paulo 2001". Nova Era rocks :metal
-
I remember loving Unholy Wars since the first moment I heard it (the live DVD version).
Rebirth is such a good album, but definitely not on par with Holy Land or Temple of Shadows IMO.

I haven't heard Aqua yet, really need to check it out. I thought AC was pretty dull to be honest.

for me, Aqua perhaps their most dissapponting album. well, after 3 years of hiatus, lot of fans expecting more "rockin'" album after AC's released. but Aqua is quite nice stuff. IMO.
-
I know nothing about this band other than having a new appreciation for Aquiles Priester as a drummer and person, thanks to the DT auditions. So...
1. What do they sound like?
2. What are their lyrical topics?
3. Where should a n00b start?
-
I personally love Angra. They're an amazing band. They are kind of divided in two eras, the Andre Matos era and the Edu Falaschi era. Both are great but are very different.
I'd say, that the Matos era (from their first album 'till Fireworks) is more power metal-ish. Holy Land is an amazing record for sure, but I don't think it's quite a good place to start. On the other hand, I got started with the Falaschi era and "Temple of Shadows" was the album that made me a fan.
1) Their sound has been leaning more and more towards progressive metal than their eariler albums. They have lots of brazilian-type influence in their music which gives it an incredibly unique flavor. Lots of percussions and variety of instruments.
2) They are really varied. Temple of Shadows is a concept album about a guy called the shadow hunter who if I recall correctly, takes part in the crusades. I personally love the lyrics to the album. Their other lyrics cover topics like "being born again", like it was "Rebirth"'s case (which is a great album, but not as great as Temple IMO). And narrates the band's return to the music scene after replacing Andre Matos with Edu Falaschi.
3) Temple of Shadows. I don't think I have mentioned it enough times.
:biggrin:
Also, I think Aqua (their most recent album) is a great starting place.
-
1) As generic of a description as this is, a mix of power metal and progressive metal with some Brazilian music influence (based on what album you hear)
2) The usual, though leaning more towards power metal... fantasy, adventure, the occasional feeling
3) HOLY LAND. It actually does not have Priester on it, but it's one of the Andre Matos records. His singing is absolutely phenomenal and you will no doubt find great love in their music. I recommend you look up a song called "Carolina IV" first and foremost.
-
Temple of Shadows is definitely the place to start.
-
Temple of the Shadows, then Aurora Consergens. I'm not a huge fan of any of the other stuff, honestly.
-
"Rebirth" is the best them.
-
I always meant to listen to them after seeing them on Symphony X forums etc. but never got round to it. Just got Temple Of Shadows and Aurora Consergens recently after seeing the drummer was supposed to audition for DT. Hopefully will hear some good stuff and get into them.
-
WOOOOW, Angra appreciation thread ;D
Bosk, I meet Angra thanks to Aurora Consurgens album from 2006. It sounds great, Aguiles is just perfect, perfect parts for that kind of music. Angra style is progressive power metal in generally with some brazilian tasts, which sounds very interesting. Next to Priester he have Felipe Andreoli on bass, which is one of greatest influences, just behind Sheehan and JM ( bass finger players only interests me ) ;) What I like about Angra, the band has some DT vibe... LIsten to some songs like Sound Of Nature, Ego Painted Grey (impressive tapping bass intro) or Time Passing By. They are just killers !!!
-
Aquiles played on Rebirth, Temple of Shadows and Aurora Consurgens. From those, Temple of Shadows is the best by far, IMO.
I also recommend Holy Land, Angels Cry and their lastest album, Aqua. Aqua's production is horrible, but the songs are really, really great.
-
They're power metal I guess, but with a fairly proggy edge. These days they have a really good sound going, and their current singer is excellent. First couple of albums are nice, but a little cheesier.
I concur with the consensus in here, start with Temple of Shadows, easily one of my favourite power metal (ish) albums.
-
i had a trippy parallel in my exploration of spock's beard and angra last year, my two most listened to bands for the year (orbs was a close 3rd despite only one album to their credit, AND despite it only coming out later on in the year).
i mentioned months back in the spock's thread how i was a pretty big fan circa 1999-2001. but i only ever checked out one song on the first album following neal's departure, wasn't impressed, and was too ignorant and too busy getting into other bands that i never bothered to checking out anything post-neal era until last summer. don't get me wrong, i continued to enjoy neal-era spock's over those 8 years, but i partly assumed they were nowhere near as good without him and didnt check out anything new over them years...then (possible as a result of the success i had in the first half of 2010 with angra) i decide to finally give "nick's beard" a fair chance...next thing you know i'm learning Feel Euphoria, Octane, s/t, and X inside-out over the course of a couple months, and all of a sudden i was kinda like, "neal who?"
well it went pretty much the exact same way earlier last year for me with angra. me and a buddy became big fans of Holy Land and Fireworks circa 1999/2000. and just like spock's, angra found themselves needing a new singer only shortly after i got into them. and just like i didnt give post-neal spock's a fair chance, i only gave Rebirth one chance (i dont even think i listened to the whole album), wasnt impressed, and never revisited it over the years nor any of the album's that came out since, yet all the while continuing to enjoy Holy Land and Fireworks from time to time.
i'm not sure what prompted it, but last year in january i checked out salvation suicide and thought, *wow, that's pretty fucking awesome*...before i knew it, edu-era angra was my new obsession. i acquired it all and spun everything from the past decade so much in about 3 or 4 months that i no longer felt like *look what i've been missing out on all these years* but instead felt like i HAD been spinning them all these years.
so needless to say, i was highly anticipating the release of Aqua. and though i tripped out on it from the first couple spins (yes, the production is a little off, and edu's vox sound different somehow...i read someone suggesting it sounds like edu had a cold during the tracking), i absolutely love the album. it was my second favorite album of the year (a very close second, next to the mentioned Orbs album).
also, for anyone that finds they like felipe/aquiles-era angra, be sure to check out Freakeys. it's to angra what LTE is to dream theater, an instrumental album featuring angra's bassist, drummer, and touring keyboardist. i've heard it slammed on this forum as being nowhere near the quality of, say, LTE...sure, it might not have quite the variety of LTE, and i could even see how someone might call it 'generic prog' or something, but i rather like it. it might not have gotten as many spins last year as Temple, Consurgens, or Aqua, but it was definitely up there. really sick playing, and strong song writing according to pain of occupation.
-
Just listed to Temple of Shadows as recommended. The band sounds like a combination of Dragonforce (i.e. power metal), Iron Maiden (singer sounds VERY MUCH like bruce dickinson; non-singer reasons as well), and DT. Maybe in 45/45/10 proportions.

What the hell? They have pretty much nothing in common with Dragonforce, aside from the fact that some of the songs are pretty fast, but that's just all power metal surely?
The Bruce Dickinson comparison is fair though, especially on that album.

I dont really know any power metal other than one album of dragonforce, so yes that was equivalent to saying "they're power metal."
-
Ah ok, fair enough. :lol
Dragonforce are NOT representative of power metal, to be honest. You should seek out some of the good stuff (like Angra).

I used to quite like HammerFall, but honestly they're just too cheesy for me now. I still enjoy a handful of their songs, but I have a feeling it's more because of nostalgia than anything else. :lol
-
I never found Hammerfall too interesting. Pretty generic imo.
-

Generic is not the word I'd use, as I haven't heard any other band that sounds like them. People are too quick to describe things as "generic" when they just mean they don't like it.
-
Going back to Angra. I think it is a good prog power band. I saw them live when they were touring Aurora Consurgence. Very interesting show.
I'd recommend to start from Angel's Cry and Fireworks. It seems everyoine here likes the latest better but I think the Matos era was great.
-
Well, here's my take after listening to a couple of songs that I found on YouTube: Generic power metal.
:biggrin: Sorry, Rich. I'll clarify.
Although there are power metal bands out there that aren't like this, what I think of as being stereotypical power metal is kind of: Playing classical chord progressions and scales as fast as humanly possible, which includes the drums playing so quickly that it is almost a constant "buzz" of drums rather than discernable drums hits, and operatic falsetto male vocals. In general, with a few exceptions, that styles doesn't appeal to me. I don't really like what I've heard from bands lke Dragonforce or Firewind that are all about that style. The musicianship is incredible, and the talent is undeniable, but it just doesn't appeal to me.
Angra seems to fall pretty squarely into that style, at least from what I've heard so far. I like some of the comments I've heard that there is a very progressive side to them as well and that they infuse some Brazilian aspects into their style, so I'm going to give them another shot and try to find some more of their stuff to listen to. But, so far, their music hasn't really done much for me, unfortunately.

For more proggy and Brazilian influenced I recommend Never Understand.(Kai Hansen plays in this one :tup) That is my favorite Angra Song. You can also try Carolina IV.

bosk1, if you get off on ballads as much as you do on ariich, i got a few suggestions for the less-power-metal side of the band: wishing well, sprouts of time, late redemption, breaking ties, lease of life, & ashes
EDIT: as for them sounding overly power, i'd say really only two songs on Aqua be power metal. maybe two and a half.
-
Well I will stick to mine, that is progressive power metal ;) First Angra album that I've heard was Aurora Consurgens and two or maybe three songs are generic power metal from there IMO.
-
Angra are anything but generic power metal. Angels Cry and Holy Land are power metal perfection.

Nice. I think it was Kattle who ways telling me to check out the latest Angra album in another thread when we were discussing this years ProgPower and I finally got Omni a couple weeks ago, but more importantly, finally started listening to it and I am enjoying it. This is my first experience with the band and I wouldn't label this "generic power metal" at all. Maybe if you listened to the opening song which might be the closest track to generic. But I also really like that track :lol anyway, definitely can hear the Brazilian influence and it's definitely got some prog to it which is what I really like, that prog power combination. I'll have to dig deeper to check out some other albums eventually, but I am enjoying this one for now. :metal
I really don't like The Bottom of My Soul though, for some reason that chorus just makes me annoyed.

Yeah it’s my least favorite song on the album. Don’t care for it, really like every other song.

1. War Horns
2. Insania
3. Always More
4. Travelers of Time
5. Black Widow's Web
My top 5 on the album. Still going strong as my AOTY :2metal:
-
Glad you're enjoying it cramx3. :) Fantastic album and they're going to be awesome at ProgPower. I do love The Bottom of My Soul though. :)
-
By the way, there's a lot more discussion about Omni in the Secret Garden thread. Maybe the these 2 threads should be merged?
-
I agree, they should be merged, 'cause I don't know where to post this awesome new shot of the band.

Just posted this same news in the progpower thread, but I am excited for this
ANGRA SET NEWS!

As a reminder... there are still a handful of tickets available for days 1 and 2. ;)
Thanks everyone!

Chose a bunch of songs from Secret Garden and some classics (Spread Your Fire, Angels & Demons, Carolina IV, The Voice Commanding You, and Nova Era). I'll be counting to see how many get played :metal
-
I'll vote whatever you guys want since I have no idea, so thats 5 songs, give me 3 more.

Perfect Symmetry, Black Hearted Soul, Upper Levels or Final Light please. I need all the Fabio songs played that I can get :2metal:

Vote for Ego Painted Grey - just one song for me, then pick whatever you want from his list. :)

Funny thing: when I told you the songs I voted for, I didn't realize I named 10 and you could only vote for 8. So now I actually have no idea what I voted for outside of the Secret Garden tracks, because I voted so quickly :lol I would be very happy if EPG got played as it's one of my favorite Aurora tracks.
-
Voted your songs, minus Final Light. Hope they play those for you guys.
What do you think are most likely to be picked? I'll want to check those out so I am more familiar, but the fact they are playing all of Omni is fantastic since I've really been loving it. Wonder how they will pull of Black Widow's Web live?
Also I think my favorite tracks are Magic Mirror into Always More, just love it so glad I'm going to get to see that.
-
Hard telling imo. I think Spread Your Fire, Angels & Demons, Carolina, Nova Era are guarantees but I could be wrong. Carry On, Heroes of Sand, ZITO, Holy Land maybe? I really have no pulse on the USA's taste in Angra.
-
Yea that's fair, I figured there had to be a couple like "staples" that would end up getting picked.
-
Rebirth seems to be a big staple in their setlists - which I'm happy about because it prefer it over most of the other staple songs like Nova Era and Carry On, etc.
-
Rebirth would be great. Hell, anything they play will be great. I can't be disappointed :biggrin:
-
Vote for Ego Painted Grey - just one song for me, then pick whatever you want from his list. :)
That's probably a top 3 Angra song for me.

Crushing Room wasn't on the poll, but now that Doro will be there, I wonder if they'll do it.
-
I'd rather hear that than any track from Aqua, and I'm not even a Doro fan. (I went back and tried to listen to Aqua today and... nope. Still sucks big time.)

bump.
anyone know anything about this documentary about Andre Matos?
it says coming on 9/14/21, but whether it actually got released seems questionable, but maybe it still?
