[Kurt Cocaine]

Nice bang of Bölzer off these guys...

Sounds alright but kind of like a sanded off Bölzer with all of the interesting idiosyncrasies removed.  That artwork is funny,  though. 

"Here,  have some symbolism!"

[Pedrito]

Five days til this motherfucker drops. Anyone had a sneak peak of the new release apart from the 1 song?

[Eoin McLove]

Haven't heard anything else from it but I've listened to that song quite a few times and it's savage.  Looking forward to picking it up.

[Born of Fire]

Enjoyed that immensely I must say! Really gets the hunger up for a full release

[Eoin McLove]

Going to give it a spin in a bit.  High hopes indeed.

[Pedrito]

Early listens...sounding tastage

[Eoin McLove]

Yes indeed!  This sounds excellent.  It'll be interesting to see if they plan another set of EPs before going for a second full length as a way to develop their sound into new territory. This is darker and more aggressive sounding in tone,  and in terms of the lyrics of Shepherds, compared to the more positive vibe of Hero, while retaining/ re-imagining the epic, clean elements.  Looking forward to getting more familiar with this.

[Petardo]

I was late to the party and only got around to Bolzer when Hero came out. There's just too many bands to keep up with. I'm kicking myself I didn't indulge earlier.
I'm on my first spin of this new album and fuck me its a belter. Definitely darker and more aggression. More focused sounding overall.

[Pedrito]

Yes, darker and more aggressive and yet very listenable. The production really allows everything to be heard. The drums sound great. A very cool alternative to Hero.

[Born of Fire]

Into the Temple of Spears could easily slot into Hero. The other 2 are a little more aggressive alright, guitars aren't as 'shiny' for want of a better word. Nice to have a bit more venom in the vocal delivery too. I'd love to hear these songs live!

Vocals are great; fine venom

Oh I wasn't criticising the vocals at all, could have worded it better I guess!

[Black Shepherd Carnage]

Hero with added wolverine bite. First listen just gives a hint of all there is to pay attention to. Impressed.
