    Kallias. I like their stuff. glad to see you saw some potential there. Vocals are not on point, but I like their music very much. They blend a lot of styles. They started as an instrumental band and as an instrumental lover I would have perfer they kept that direction. But, they did a band competition on youtube made by Sumerian Records label and they got the feedback that they should have vocals to reach a larger audience. I know its true and I know "only instrumental" is niche, but I am part of that niche audience. Well imo if you can't have very great vocals then hire a great vocalist or go instrumental.
