NIGHTS OF VIOLENCE REVIEW: OVERHOOK (Finland)

http://overhook.loota.fi/overhook.html

 

After three years of waiting, Frozen Tears finally delights us with some new material... following the old material. By that I mean, without doubt, that the band still musically follows the 1980's and its ever-inspiring heavy metal. ...So if you're stuck to that decade there's extra pleasure waiting for you in the record store.

The nine regular tracks once again hold a lot of metal solid delivery that'll blow the listeners' ears off. The musicianship, of course, grows album after album, meaning that the instruments are handled with even more love than before. Besides the structure of compositions, a whole bunch of solos are thrown with immense drive. In a couple of spots the go is so strong that your dick grows at least three inches if you can play the same tunes.. I dare you to try.

What about that tenth track then? It is a cover of Run If You Can by Accept if I'm not completely wrong. I'm not going to compare this one with the original. Hear it yourself and make up your mind if it is good, or a better version of the piece. Purists don't bother sending me hate mail.

The 80's heavy metal is not dead. Frozen Tears is waving the flag and the people aware of things fill up the ranks.

RATING: 4/5
