Superheroes ReviewContinuing in their effort of making first-class, worthwhile and must-buy singles and/or EP's, Edguy serves up Superheroes. Like 2004's King of Fools, Superheroes shows Edguy is far from finished, and have so much power in reserve that it's almost scary. What's even scarier is the title track isn't even the main attraction....The title track "Superheroes" starts off the album, and while it's not the best Edguy song or single, it does its job well and energizes the listener ~ simply put, the track is just plain "fun". "Spooks in the Attic" is another playful, upbeat tune, with some of those goofy lyrics you'd expect from Edguy thrown in for good measure (Example: I'm a family kind of man, I've lately started number ten).
While the first two songs reveal Edguy's well-known silly side, there is nothing funny about the third track, "Blessing in Disguise". A slow, strong and serious song with a dynamite chorus, "Blessing in Disguise" has my vote for the best song on the EP. The song paints such a vivid narrative in my head it is downright frightening, and would make a killer video. Unfortunately, while I think the track is amazing, I just know it is doomed to become one of Edguy's most underrated songs ever (like "Frozen Candle" on Savage Poetry) because it is different that what one expects from Edguy.
Sammet and crew bounce back from the dark and dank with "Judas at the Opera". The harmony guitar solo that opens this song just screams Helloween Keepers-era, which is so appropriate considering Michael Kiske makes his appearance as a guest vocalist. Speaking of Kiske, I'm actually quite surprised he's even on this disc, considering his big "I'm no longer interested in the metal scene, I never fit into the metal community" statement he posted on the internet. Sammet must have flashed a big wad-o-cash to secure his participation, hehe.
Back to the song, Kiske and Sammet vocally battle back and fourth in this "mini-epic" that must be heard to believed. Honestly, when Sammet can throw in the word "french-fried" in the chorus and still make the song work, you know you got a winner. The album closes with "The Spirit" (which is surprisingly a Magnum cover), and the Epic Version of "Superheroes", which are good, but just seem like sprikles on an already richly iced cake.
Simply put, this is one of 2005 best euro metal releases despite the fact it's only a single/EP and appetizer to Edguy's new album Rocket Ride. In the end, for ten dollars, you're not gonna find a single/EP, let alone an album that gives you more bang for your buck.
