APOCALYPSE - Liv I Laden Instrumental track. Bassist Peter Thorslund would go on to record with ARTILLERY, and there are certainly some similarities with that band - top notch thrash metal that is intelligent but not technical.
MARION - Cruising Some significant thrash riffs, but it would seem that at least one member wanted to go in a more sleazy direction and as a result the whole thing is just a shambles.
METAL CROSS - Evil Eye A foreboding CANDLEMASS style intro, some cool DEEP SWITCH like vocals, Edgar Allen Poe inspired lyrics, and the rest is MERCYFUL FATE. All this adds up to one awesome song.
GAIN - Something In The Air Quite slow, but it doesn't have that ominous feeling that doom metal needs. Rather, it just plods along and goes nowhere.
ROYAL FLUSH - Heroes Great epic NWOBHM style song with vocals that sound both youthful and emotional. Torben Aalykke would later play guitar for hard rock band SAVAGE AFFAIR.
Tracklist side B:
GAIN - Strange World This song adds a folky element which puts it in a better perspective, but it is still more curious than listenable.
ROYAL FLUSH - This Must Be Love Clearly trying to show their more accessible (i.e. radio-friendly) side, though there are some nice galloping riffs in parts.
MARION - Sex More of a straightforward metal tune, but the vocals still suck (and I could do without the "sound effects" too).
METAL CROSS - Call For The Children Another great song, but this time in a thrash metal style. In particular, the opening sounds like SABBAT (UK).
APOCALYPSE - Genocide With vocals, the style leans more toward power metal and the result is just as pleasing.
