Four years after their first EP release Mad John the Wise are back with their debut full length album "Voyager". An album that is a vulgar declaration of the band's maturity.
Blending traditional metal forms with folk and progressive elements along with dozens of other influences they managed to produce a remarkable debut filled with tasty riffs, melodic vocals, crystal clear sound and a lot of 'mood swings' that can either be melancholic doom moments, joyous folk passages or heavy metal outbursts.We're definitely going to include "Voyager" in the list of the most addictive debuts for 2018.
