New Wave of NWOBHM and classic traditiona metal REBORN!!!!

I really like Striker. Very good band. Want to hear more.

Right on thanks a lot man, I'm actually the guitar player haha. We've got a new album coming in January or February before our European tour. We'll also have a new track up on myspace in about a week that's being featured on a compilation for the Keep it True festival we're playing in Germany in april.

I really like your guys sound. Very solid. Glad to see more bands now going back to thier roots and playing traditional metal again.
 
Is Bob or anybody else into Crystal Viper?

One of my favorites new bands. Marta Gabriel is quite an artist: composes music, lyrics, makes arrangements, and sing! :worship:. So basically CV is her brainchild, and thus after 2 albums (and an EP) I must say they're doing a fine job in the epic metal field.

No groundbreaking stuff here but definitively done alright. I guess fans of old Omen, Manilla Road and similar bands will like CV for sure.

Love Crystal Viper, Marta Gabriel (Leather Wych) sounds alot like Doro, straight outtathegate true metal...
 
Hey guys,

I said a few weeks ago we'd post a new track on our myspace but then the compilation album it was coming out on was delayed. But now it has finally made it up!

It can be heard here http://www.myspace.com/listentostriker

It's a version recorded exclusively for the Keep it True compilation so the one on the new album coming out in the new year is a little different.

Hope you guys like it!!

LOVIN this!!!!! I can't wait for the album!!!!
