yeah Crystal Pride are a good doom band, I like their demo best, can't remember how it's called right now, but I've purchased their Lp after listening to this demo and I must say I have been slightly let down

I never noticed her accent, she's such a screamer, her voice makes even the songs with not that interesting lyrics sound good.

By the way, what is this? It looks like some kind of reunion or one-off gig, the video was uploaded in 2008 according to what it says:

Has anyone ever looked into reissuing the early Crystal Pride stuff? A 7"/demo compilation would be pretty amazing.

Less than a minute of the band playing, they looked a little older.

Susie's voice reminds me of Kim Wild

They aren't doom. Only their demo is doomy.

Definitely not doom, but that part towards the end of Silverhawk is pretty doomy too. And that grunt/shriek Susie lets out right after that part is the best 2 second section of any song ever recorded :)

For me, their demo is like as if ACID played doom metal, which is very cool.
LP is so-so, it's good ol' catchy HM with lot of fun, but Susie's vocal there get a bit one-dimensional after a while for my ears.
