Solitaire -- Finnish Speed Metal

[Insania]

Have any of you heard of this band?

IMO, overall it sounds like old Agent Steel and Exciter combined. Head to www.solitairemetal.com take a listen...if you like fast shit, here it is.

That first sample, Countdown, has an eerie Sacred Reich feel to it, I can't remember the song (Death Squad?). The entire CD is loaded with leads, and more leads, high pitched ones...

I bought this CD, and am pretty happy with it. The vocals are kinda rough, but they are clean (wa-hey!) -- without sounding negative, they are 'acceptable'. How's that for on-the-fence?

Check 'em out. If you liked early Exciter, you'll get into this...the bassist Mikko is even wearing an Exciter shirt in the band photo.

I have only heard one song 'I'll Never Grow Up'm and is damn funny, speedy and catchy. But something in the vox still hasn't convince me enough.
Thanks for the link

SOLITAIRE are one of my favourite Speed Metal bands. Totally brilliant stuff and great live band too. I just picked up their newest album but haven´t gotten around to listening to it yet.
