shit quality 20 kbps realaudio, if anyone has higher quality (probably only tully and iofthestorm EDIT: oh yeah and fotmbm obviously! are likely to even have heard of this band, and that's probably a huge fucken stretch too) plz send

http://www.vibrationsofdoom.com/test/calbums10/SwordsAndChains.ram <-- great song of nwobhm/trad/epic metal

 

[Krilons Resa]

Ive heard of these guys I THINK. I'll listen a bit later.

 

[Erik]

i think you'd like it... god damn i hate 20 kbps realaudio though!

 

[Conspicuously Absent]

I hate realaudio in general

 

[IOfTheStorm]

What Erik said is true, the band's style is somewhere between nwobhm and early u.s. power metal. Very good material. I've just heard the album though and not the ep.

 

[IOfTheStorm]

Btw i hope that you and fotbm are aware of Heavy Load.

 

[Krilons Resa]

Mercy =

 

[IOfTheStorm]

[IOfTheStorm]

[KILL TULLY]

Fuckin' awsome shit.

And by silly name, you must mean awsome name. =D

 

[Erik]

bumpin dis fucken shit

everyone needs to download the zip and listen to "SWORDS AND CHAINS"

 

[Johanna]

Bump'd again because of the awesomeness. Swords and Chains = hit song and The Unknown is a rocking album.
Also I have not been listening to Heavy Load so I probably should, good recommendations in this thread.

 

[Hell Mike]

FUCK YEAH Gotham City rocks so fucking hard and I luv my luvkli girlfriend for having a heavy metal night
