Hailing from Finland, these guys aren't your average power metal band. Forming in 1998 and releasing Reign of Elements in 2002 which was just an average release, but don't be fooled just yet. Their second release Legacy of Hate was much different. Not only did it contain such classics as Shelter, Dream, and Legacy of Hate part 1 and 2. Their singer Antti Railio plays many parts in this concept album, about lizard folk and such (I'm not fully understanding of the concept) but since he is exceptional in clean, death , and black vocals, he plays each part well. Legacy of Hate part 1 and 2 are both 10 minutes in length. Their latest release Mortal Mind Creation shows the band maturing more. From the opening track Lord of Mortals, you are instantly hooked on this great power metal release. Definitely better than your average power metal band.

The sad reality is, Celesty have been deteriorating since Reign of Elements [which was superb]. They had a lot to live up to after a debut like that, and they've fallen short imo. Vendetta is beyond average, if they're trying to move into becoming a Symphonic Power band [which is what Vendetta, in my eyes, suggests] then they should do so 100% and not half heartedly.
