Style: mean ferocious speed heavy metal
this is fuckin' intense, mean, heavy and hardly expected blast of ferocious speed/heavy metal [1990] by the British killing machine after some musical detours and slowly but surely taken back path, culminating with this volcanic explosion that returned the band to the prime elite: the title track is one of the groundbreaking and greatest metal songs ever written, but they take no prisoners on Hell Patrol, Leather Rebel, A Touch of Evil, Between the Hammer & the Anvil, and the rest of tracks as well; last but not least, it was also the last studio recording with original singer and legendary frontman Rob Halford before his eleven year break from the band; recent European re-issue comes with a remastered sound plus rare Living Bad Dreams and live version of Leather Rebel as bonuses - essential metal record!
