This cover looks like something from Roadrunner or Metal Blade at that point where they let a moron handle their cover art. EXODUS had better cover art. EXODUS! NUCLEAR ASSAULT had better looking covers. Track one kinda blows. It's a mellow intro thing - and it cut off in the middle. Track two sounds like Euros in a garage trying to rip off MAIDEN riffs. The vocals are too trained and restrained. I want balls! I want guts! It's okay but I would never listen to this on my own. It's like listening to QUEENSRŸCHE. Sure they had talent, but would you turn to your pals and tell 'em how rippin' QUEENSRŸCHE was?

This just sounds like a sissy version of newer MAIDEN. Like take the balls out of "Wicker Man" and you'd have this band. Which reminds me, that last MAIDEN album was a mutha and people dissed it as not being so hot. Sure it was no "Killers" or "Piece Of Mind", but it ain't 1981 either. I think I get sent this stuff just so they can read me trashing it. It just seems like it goes nowhere, much like a date with your dicktease sister.

The last song steals the riff from "Heavy Metal" or whatever it's called from Sammy Hagar. They sing "We are the Saxons!" with straight faces. I had to stop myself from laughing or I woulda choked on my smoke. Dude, this band coulda done the soundtrack to "Iron Eagle 3" but only if they got McGuyver to ride a skateboard to this song. All in all this reminds me of all the great metal bands of the early 80s and how bad they got later. C'mon now! Someone needs to emulate VENOM already and not over blast beats. This could also be the soundtrack to an anime movie. Yeah, not so hot.
