Burning Point´s musical style is a unique blend of Classic Metal like Accept, Judas Priest, Black Sabbath or Yngwie Malmsteen. From the speed I would say Bands as Children Of Bodom. Even in nation like Finland, home of numerous musical talents, Pete Ahonen is exceptional. Not just because he is fantastic guitarist, cleverly combining the classical elegance of his great idol Yngwie Malmsteen with the modern sound of Children Of Bodom, but even his unique voice with it´s constant transitions between darker and lighter tones, awakens memories of such as great vocalists as Jeff Scott Soto. Burning Point was founded in the Fall of 1999 in Oulu, Finland. They managed to get a record deal with a well-known German based metal label where they released the albums „Salvation By Fire“ (2001) and „Feeding The Flames“ (2003) plus the single „To Hell And Back“ (2004) on Poison Arrow Records (Finland/Sweden only). Even after massive legal problems, the loss of their record deal they could still play live on some festivals. In 2005, they recorded another promotional CD which was brought to the attention of Metal Heaven in Germany who offered the band a record deal and released „Burned Down The Enemy“ both marks the end of an era but also the beginning of something new. The new Line-Up is packed with energy and all band members now are totally standing behind the band. Musically, „Burned Down The Enemy“ is by far the most heaviest and aggressive album in the band´s history, although they haven´t forgotten the great melodies and huge choruses. The limited version includes 3 Bonus tracks: „My Reign, my Fire“, „Heart Of Gold (Demo)“ and „The Road To Hell“. Should like every powermetal fans and Lovers of the progressive Metal, too.
