Steelwing - Lord of the Wasteland
Genius homage to NWOBHM from the frozen north courtesy of Mooncat (thanks!). They have all the non musical attributes - Nordic metal tresses, acres of stretch demin, white hi-tops, one member whose look doesn't quite fit, 2000AD sleevage and a classic early 80s metal logo. Sometimes listening to some young 'uns revisiting musical ground that the originators themselves have tired of is a wonderful thing. And who doesn't need a little Saxon / Maiden meet Marc Storace in their lives?



Glad you like. And don't forget, the bassist is called Skurk! The sleeve is by a guy called Ed Repka, American I think, who is the current go-to-guy for lovingly executed retro-now metal sleeves. When Solus 3 do their metal album, he's your man!



How can you not like a metal band with a bassist called Skurk? Looks like I might have another purchase to make.
