15042014 - Liege Lord "Burn to My Touch"

Classic US power metal alert! I never did listen enough to Liege Lord in their heyday, but I remember the song "Cast Out" from this album. The entire thing is very easy to relate to: If you are allergic to air raid siren vocals, powerhouse riffing and twin lead guitars - or if you think there's such a thing as being "too much inspired by early Iron Maiden" - you might as well stay away from this album. But if you love all of the above and enjoy true classic speed metal craftsmanship, you may bow down and praise this Lord! Fun fact: One of the band's guitarists, Anthony Truglio, went on to play in a late version of Helmet and the other guitarist, Paul Nelson, would later play in Johnny Winter's band, even receiving a Grammy nomination!
