Happy Friday, here’s some power metal coming straight out of Salt Lake City, it’s Visigoth’s Warrior Queen. I’ve talked about these guys previously with their song Dungeon Master, about guys who like… battle orcs and have maximum charisma. This time it’s about a lady who’s badass and has a sword & stuff.

The song is pretty straight down the fairway power metal, kicking off with a drum fill before the singer shows off his pipes. It’s got a solid chugga guitar line during the verses, putting it right at home with like Dream Evil and whatnot. There’s a solid solo halfway through the song, chock full of finger taps and sweeps picks. Seems like most bands, if they do a solo, put it halfway through. I guess that gives the band a breather. They get an extra breather with a big epic breakdown to let the singer play flute. He plays flute you guys. And sings about marching through the fog. The big vocals transition to a good shouty part that I assume gets the crowd ready for huge moshing right at the end.

The video cuts between the band on a soundstage, and the titular warrior queen standing alone and ready to fight some guy who has a flail or something. Oh and she defeats a king who looks like he’s king of the comic shop down the street. The vocalist seems like a nice guy but he also looks like “we have Halford at home” with his studded jacket. Oooh there is a bit of some rock guitar posing.
