Two years after the release of his first album, Almah released his second album “Fragile
Equality”.
Almah, now a real band and not only the solo project of Eduardo Falaschi, Angra’s singer,
has a new line-up 100% made in Brazil, with of course Edu Falaschi (Angra ) on vocals,
Felipe Andreoli (Angra) on bass, Paulo Schroeber (cover Pantera) and Marcelo Barbosa
(Khallice) on guitars and Marcelo Moreira (Burning In Hell) on drums.
If the artwork signed Gustavo Sazes is beautiful, the album signed by our five Brazilian is
too!
A power metal of very high quality, fresh, filled with new sounds, with compositions of a
very high technical level that does not leave aside melodies and emotions, and very, very
talented musicians! The two guitarists Paulo Schroeber / Marcelo Barbosa are awesome,
Felipe Andreoli on bass is excellent, Marcelo Moreira with his accurate and powerful touch is
brilliant in its creativity! And what about Edu falaschi ‘s voice, awesome and makes us go
through a pallette of emotions!
Fragile Equality begins with a piece of pure power metal "Birds of Prey" with great riffs and
crazy solo, continues with a symphonic anthem "Beyound Tomorrow" with a magnificent
chorus (so great in live! ), followed by "Magic Flame" masterpiece of speed metal symphonic.
The ballad "All I Am", with its poignancy chorus, appeasing before the resumption of
hostilities with "You'll Understand," a very progressive title. Then the semi-ballad "Invisible
Cage", with its Brazilian rythms fusions admirably with the two guitarists riffs!
We are entering another dimension with the title "Fragile Equality" very speed, with Edu
Falaschi singing very aggressive, almost trash and a great and very experimental solo! The
title "Torn" is surprising: very aggressive, with an awesome vocal line, which makes me think
of the eighties and a chorus very modern and yet another trash elements inclusion! "Shade Of
My Soul", the second ballad of the album is very beautiful, soothing, with again an Edu’s
voice very impressive.

The album ends as it began, with a piece of Power metal, which can think of Nova Era (Angra
song composed by Edu Falaschi), but even richer and more powerful!
Fragile Equality is an album of very high quality, very varied, with many influences, sound
and production are enormous, a real heavy metal lesson!
The only blame is that the album lasts 47 minutes but we want more!
To listen absolutely!
