Twisted Tower Dire

Twisted Tower Dire is a name that resonates with fans as one of the torchbearers of the American power metal scene. Formed in the early 90s in Chantilly, Virginia, the band set out to celebrate the traditional European power metal sound that was heavily influenced by the New Wave of British Heavy Metal, merging it with their unique brand of fantasy-themed storytelling and emphatic riffs. Throughout their career, they've maintained a consistent lineup core with occasional changes, most notably after the tragic passing of original vocalist Tony Taylor in 2010.

Twisted Tower Dire's discography is testament to their dedication to crafting epic, memorable metal anthems. Their 2011 release "Make It Dark" showcases their evolution as a band, refining their sound while preserving the high-energy and melodic hooks that fans have come to love. Preceding albums such as "The Isle Of Hydra" (2001) and "Crest Of The Martyrs" (2003) are fan favorites, loaded with galloping rhythms and robust, anthemic choruses. "Netherworlds" (2007) continued the legacy with an array of powerful, guitar-driven songs, and earlier works like "The Curse of Twisted Tower" (1999) display the raw, potent energy of a band forging their path in the metal realm. Despite not being as prolific as some of their contemporaries, Twisted Tower Dire has managed to leave a lasting impact on the genre, guaranteeing them a spot in the annals of power metal history.
