Signum Regis has now reached their eighth album, and I have nothing but good things to say after listening to it. “Beyond Spacetime” stands out as a very good melodic power metal album, featuring symphonic, progressive and hard rock elements as well! The Slovak band’s power metal is mainly European in character, although there are also influences from American bands such as Symphony X and Crimson Glory. In any case, the main elements of “Beyond Spacetime” are melody, power and incredible technical performance – everything is present in abundance and, together with the strong emotion, defines an album that achieves its goal triumphantly. What is the goal? Of course, to charm the listener, of course, to please them, and of course, to reward them for their time and attention! Signum Regis manages to entertain fans of the genre, who will find everything they are looking for in their new creation. I don’t think anything is missing from “Beyond Spacetime”, which is a complete musical work, with a beginning, middle and end. The only thing that initially made me wonder was the fact that they collaborate with a different singer on each song. In the end, however, this variety brings freshness, keeps the interest alive and adds further dimensions to the final result. So, Signum Regis offers us a rich, moving, direct and effective album, proving that they still have plenty to say and give in 2026! If you are into power metal, don’t hesitate – “Beyond Spacetime” is the album you need! Congratulations to Signum Regis.
