Product Description
Black Majesty's second album, Silent Company, is an absolute must-have album for every metal fan. The Australian metropolis, Melbourne, who gave the metal world bands such as Vanishing Point and Pegazus, has bred a new combo, comprising of John Cavaliere (vocals), Stevie Janevski (guitar), Hanny Mohamed (guitar), Evan Harris (bass) and Pavel Konvalinka (drums). With their first demo recordings, Black Majesty were voted amongst the best unsigned acts and in 2003 were signed by LMP and released their debut album, Sands Of Time.

Silent Company contains the new hammer songs Dragon Reborn, Silent Company and the hymnlike Visionary, following the melodic-classic paths laid out by Iron Maiden, (early) Queensryche and Helloween, whilst the Celtic sounds of the cover version of John English's Six Ribbons and the somewhat calmer Darkened Room show a totally new but by no means less brilliant side of the Australians. It is with songs such as these that John Cavaliere, who in the higher vocal ranges, is reminiscent of Bruce Dickinson, truly earns his reputation as one of the best metal singers of the southern hemisphere. The band cut no financial corners during the production and recorded the drums with Piet Sielck (Iron Savior, Saxon, Wizard) in the K.A.R.O. Studios in Germany and produced and mixed by Endel Rivers at Palmstudios, Melbourne.

3 out of 5 stars Competent but Not Majestic.......2007-07-11

I picked this up after hearing the excellent title track on the 'louder than the dragon 2' compilation and I must say the album is something of a disappointment. While musically the band is decent enough, the songs are not memorable and really don't do anything to distinguish themselves from the sea of current power metal offerings out there. LMP has a bad reputation for just churning out generic power metal albums, and 'silent company' seems to uphold that reputation. Again, it's not a bad album, but with almost 20 years of power metal under my belt, this album just isn't interesting

5 out of 5 stars Silent Company.......2007-02-07

This is a really great CD - reminds me a little of Maiden and EdGuy...the lyrics and vocals are on par with both, something that can't be said about many other bands (this is a huge understatement). Currently this is my only Black Majesty CD so can't compare to their others but after this purchase I will start to collect them. Very powerful stuff, it will be interesting to see where these guys will go from here.

4 out of 5 stars You must be kidding........2005-09-15

Bands who try to sell albums with marketing and hype have never been on my good side, no matter how good their material is. Black Majesty's second album, Silent Company, is a Power Metal album i would consider above average, period. Is it a must-have? Not to my knowledge, no.

I approached this record with strong skepticism and a noticeable desire to shoot another fish in the pond. The sound of the album, however, is weaved with skill and i was impressed by the result on my first listening. For an accurate comparison, it sounds a lot like late Gamma Ray with some Blind Guardian moody swings mixed in and some very rare progressive instrumentals. A bit too rare to influence the end result however, and this is the main problem with Silent Company. It is a good Power Metal album which tries to create its own mold, but somewhat fails gracefully.

All said, i still enjoyed Silent Company.

I'm a 52 year old musician (keys and guitars)I lived through the Beatles emerge on the scene, then Clapton (fastest guitarist) Hendrix (best) Deep Purple (spaciest) Emerson (Best keyboards)Rush (best drummer) Dream Theater (true Progress) and too many others to mention - WELL GET THIS - Black Majesty is the latest and the best of a long line of greatests - this CD is off the charts wonderful and I want to put it this way - I flew to England from California to see Porcupine Tree because I thought they may never travel to the USA (later they did) and I am now looking to find out where Black Majesty is going to play because THey are worth travelling anywhere in the world to see.
get it????? these guys are the state of the art best awesome beautiful majestic and I cant imagine what they can do next after this but I wait (-:
My favorites are Adagio - Andromeda - Angra - Ark - Ayreon - Balance of Power - Black Majesty - Bossio Levin Stevens - Braindance - Burning Point - Circus Maximus - Deep Purple - Divine Regale - Dream Theater - ELP - Explorers CLub - Ice Age - Kamelot - Liquid Tension - Magnitude Nine - Tony McAlpine - John McLaughlin - OSI - Pagan's Mind - Planet X - Porcupine Tree - Roya Hunt - Rush - Satriani - Shadow Gallery - Sonata Arcticaa - Steve Morse - Symphony X - Therion - Threshold - Vanden Plas (and in a place of its own beyond reach Pink Floyd)
