ACCLAIM FOR BRIDEAR

“The love child born of the union of J-pop and British metal”
Metal Hammer

“Their multi-layered approach [is] the epitome of J-Rock turned up to 10. Frantic riffing, a torrent of drums and bass and the sweet but spiky vocals along with some growls, this captures that unique sound that somehow mixes Thrash Metal, Tech Metal and pop.”
Metal Talk

“… glorious technicolour confection that blends hyper-sweet, high energy Japanese pop with the pomp and showy fretwork of power metal”
Power Play

“… J-pop hooks, tastefully torched scale runs, and Maiden-worthy guitarmonies”
Guitar World

“… fearless, yet meticulously crafted”
Distorted Sound

“BRIDEAR has kept its pop sensibility and power-metal roots but, from the get-go, this record has a more epic, cinematic feel.”
Idobi
