Based in Tokyo, Japan’s Risingfall formed in 2014. From the beginning, the band’s foundation has been power-leaning heavy metal with an emphasis on vocal melodies. Stirred into their magickal cauldron are strong doses of NWOBHM, hard rock, and US power metal from the olden days. At last, their debut album is here, bearing the title Rise or Fall. FFO Saxon, Savage Grace, Vicious Rumors and Satan.
