About the last place you'd expect to find a power metal band is Omaha, Nebraska. Omaha has a great scene, but it's mostly indie rock. Power metal is a European dominated genre, but on their debut album Cellador proves the U.S. also has some good power metal bands.
Their press materials describe Cellador as an "extreme" power metal band. I wouldn't go that far, but their tempos are a little faster and the intensity a little greater than most power metal bands. None of the band members is older than 23 years old, and their musicianship is outstanding. Michael Gremio has an excellent voice with a wide range and plenty of the power metal vibrato style. With a debut this polished and being so young, this is a band with an extremely bright future.
