    More metal from Portugal! Luis Barros, the drummer for Tarantula, produced both In Solitude and Evidence at the Rec 'n Roll Studios. Like their colleagues Evidence, In Solitude is making power metal, and their take on the genre throws in a little progressiveness. Vocally, I'm reminded more of Helloween or Mike Lee. Lyrically, this album is a concept based around the Creation.
