Free Music Notes for I Walk Among You (CDS)
Free Music Review: Matt Barlow is God.
Hit: 5 Stars
I've been a loyal IE fan for more than 8 years now, and it has been my favorite band ever since. I believe if you call yourself a true IE fan, you know Matt Barlow IS the voice for this band. I don't understand how "The Glorious Burden" and "Framing Armageddon" can be rated by someone as Iced Earth's best, when they truly can't compare to the thrash power of "Night of the Stormrider" (even though it had John Greely on vocals), the melodies and music work in "Something Wicked this way Comes" and "Dark Saga", or the AMAZING vocal prowess in "Alive in Athens".
I recently had the chance to see IE with Barlow back at the Gods of Metal 2008 festival. I can verify that "Declaration Day" and "Ten Thousand Strong" (originally by Ripper) were sung by Barlow in their greatest form. Whoever says Barlow can't hit the high tones Ripper can, obviously isn't fully aware of this vocalist's abilities.
Now, the 5 star rating for this single is obviously because of Matt's return. Even though he "covers" 2 songs originally sung by Ripper, the band itself sounds a lot heavier (the arrangements for Ripper's higher voice affected IE's original sound), like it has for all these years.
Having Barlow re-sing these songs isn't any more blasphemous than having Ripper re-make the Something Wicked trilogy (which I honestly can't listen to). Matt's voice is what gives IE its heavy "thrashy" sound; and even if I can't complain about Ripper's performance (he is a truly talented singer), I'm still amazed at statements like "Ripper sounds better", or "The last 2 IE's records were the best". Seriously, I think you need to listen to the band's earlier work to appreciate its original sound, and come to the conclusion that it is a really good band... its just not awesome without Barlow.
