FROZEN TEARS (ITA) - NIGHTS OF VIOLENCE - The VERDICT
Current mood: jubilant

FROZEN TEARS

Nights of Violence – 2007 MY GRAVEYARD Prod – 10 Tracks – 50'

4th album for these Italian Heavy Metal warriors ! After a very good METAL HURRICANE I was really impatient to listen to their new CD !
NIGHTS OF VIOLENCE gives us another very good Traditional Heavy Metal hit !
You will still find the early Judas Priest influence (less than in METAL HURRICAN) and for me it's a real pleasure ! That kind of 80's Heavy Metal you can listen every hour, every day, you won't be annoyed with!
Don't search for originality, but for solid and powerful melodic Heavy Metal songs, you won't regret !
Really good production is offered, and believe me you will be able to blow up your speakers! My favourite songs are "Instability, Queen of Solitude, Don't Waste your Time, The Fortress, Stories, Child's Prayer (with this Maidenish musical part), and a really successful cover from Accept, Run if you Can (From Breaker 1981). Well in fact it's nearly a perfect album:))
OK my 3 best (from the best) are Don't Waste your Time, The Fortress and The Prison !
I love the voice of Alessio, he really progressed since the beginning !
I still don't understand why Italians are able to play 80's HM with this quality, and in France it seems so impossible (except MYSTERY BLUE, LONEWOLF and few others)…
I can't write NIGHTS OF VIOLENCE is the album of the year but surely one of the Best 80's Heavy Metal one! Try to listen several times this CD I'm sure more it will go more you will be addicted to !
You can be proud Italian Headbangers to have this kind of band ! Hope you will support them On Stage!

TO HELP YOU TO GO TO THEIR MYSPACE YOU WILL FIND FROZEN TEARS ON MY TOP FRIENDS (DURING 2 WEEKS). ITALIAN STEEL IS SCREAMING FOR VENGEANCE !

THE VERDICT:
Considering it's the 4th Album for a Band on a Label:

RASKAL The French Warrior gives : 18
RASKAL The Objective gives : 17

The French Warrior speak with it's Heart and is more interested by the essence of the songs / cover / attitudes…
The Objective takes all with a more "professional" vision (production, way to play, to sing...) and tries to be neutral.
