Crystal Viper – Metal Nation
Crystal Viper – Metal Nation CD (AFM)
The 2nd re-issue of this Polish metal bands back catalogue before they signed with the mighty AFM Records and a beautifully beneficial package it is to boot! Featuring 16 songs and more of a (dare I say) power metal feel to ‘Metal Nation’ but one that still metalheads, thrashers, and power fiends will lap up with ease. The cover of Agent Steel’s ‘Agents Of Steel’ and Running Wild’s ‘Libertalia’ throw the horns towards their metal influences whilst the likes of ‘Bringer Of The Light’, ‘The Anvil Of Hate’, ‘Zombie Lust (Flesh Eaters)’ and ‘1428’ show the shear brilliance Crystal Viper execute with their delivery of metal. Great sound and songs make you hit the reply button with real ease, and any self respecting metalhead will wanna check these guys (and girl) out. If you have any doubts also check out the likes of ‘Crimen Excepta’ www.massmovement.co.uk/wordpress/?p=17364 or ‘The Curse Of Crystal Viper’ their massively impressive debut. But be warned both are even heavier! YEAH \m/ Mark Freebase
