I’ve held onto Bat Head Soup for the cover of “Mr. Crowley” which opens that CD as well as this one. Ripper Owens and Yngwie Malmsteen are both amazing.
Thinking man’s Primal Fear, double bass-void Stratovarius (Kotipelto solo?), or the last couple of Maidens come to mind. Dependable, frilly-sleeved metal.
Five tracks, four actual songs (one an obscure, very heavy Alice Cooper cover), 17 minutes, but this dark, American power metal gem is making waves in Europe.
