GLANVILLE: First Blood
Old-School Awesome
If you were a fan of bands like Iron Maiden, Judas Priest and Thin Lizzy, or enjoy current bands like Valkyrie and Horisont, then you will quickly appreciate the perfection of this album. First Blood is a masterful metal album that will also appeal to stoner rock fans such as myself, who grew up on early heavy metal. What's more, René Hofmann reminds me of Graham Bonnet, which gives him kingpin status in my book.
Here is the album's opening track, "God Is Dead":
And now the truly genius "Demons":
Glanville are from Darmstadt, Marburg, Frankfurt and St. Albans in Germany. They are:
René Hofmann (vocals)
Philipp Michel (lead guitar)
Peter-Philipp Schierhorn (bass)
Thomas Hoffmann (drums)
Chris West (rhythm guitar)
Many thanks to Nerve Salad for making me aware of this gem. Even John Rambo can't get this album out of his head!
Until next time -ULTRA
