Awesome, glad you like it! 🦅
BRYCE knows !! 👍💯 good recommendation to PETE
Amazing album! This is definitely one of the albums of the year. It's so refreshing to hear Metal done properly. Jordan Jacobs' vocals are unbelievable. He's like all the screamers that we love from the 80's (Eric Adams, Geoff Tate, Carl Albert, Midnight, etc.). Just got my copy Monday and I absolutely love it. Tyrant is my favorite song. Highly recommended if you like 80's Traditional Heavy Metal with a heavy shot of Speed Metal. \m/
SOLD!!!! The old timer in me NEEDS to hear metal done right. Thanks for the review
Thank you once again PETE 👍💯
Don’t forget March of the wooden soldiers tomorrow
Happy Thanksgiving Pete! I just got this album in the mail yesterday. Amazing album! Also check out the band Konquest and their new album Time and Tyranny.
Loved the debut, love this too. Cracking new band. Not trying to reinvent anything, but that's not the point. Turn it up to 11!!!
This is one of the best kind of dark horse albums of 2022! These guys haven't been around long and they're killin' it!
Absolutely killer album. If you like this you should definitely check out Venator. These guys are absolute masters of melodic, hook laden, 80s sounding metal. Not to mention Johannes Huemer has an incredible voice. "Echoes from the Gutter" is one of the best albums released this year.
Yes. Venator is top tier NWOTHM.
also checked this one out over the last week or so based on Bryce's recommendation in that video. Great stuff especially the last couple of tracks!
Bryce has got some taste :) I absolutely love this album
tyrant is my favorite song on this album.the chorus and guitar solo are great
great band, great album! Probably my favorite rock album of 2022
I have Burn The Night on red Vinyl, absolutely love it... hope the new singer is good....
Amazing band and album! Looking forward to see them at Up The Hammers in Athens next year (of course, day after our gig) 🤘🤘
Killer album BUT I just love the debut "Burn the Night" so much from 2019. New vocalist is similar and super solid but to me the debut just crushes more to my ear. Glad we have a new album from them.
Love your reviews
Love your reviews and I can relate to your t-shirt, lol. I appreciate you taking the time to review all these albums Pete 😃
Saw Riot City here in Melbourne Australia last night - phenomenal live band - make sure you check them out when you can 🙂
Awesome album, real gem to play in my car. Fun fact, Olof Wikstrand is also the lead singer from the Swedish band Enforcer
I heared they changed of vocalist and thank God they did it. This album is far better than the debut,they dont reinvent the heavy metal,but what they make ,they make it right.
Haven't heard them. :) but I guess if Bryce or Pete recommend it. I guess I gotta check it out lol
got this one recently...... almost as good as the first one...... these guys will become the legends of the movement
A friend introduced me to their first album a couple of years ago, they're really good Pete! I heard a few songs off of the new album, I'll have to go listen to the new album in it's entirety.
A killer album. Tons of great heavy metal coming out this year.
i loved their first cd
Love the album, I still prefer the debut (Burn The Night) though but Electric elite is still a very solid album. I definitely do consider it one of my favorite release of 2022
This album is so damn good! I listen to it all the time . 🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼
i got it on order
Its a great album 🤟🤟🤟
Amazing album. The debut is my fav album of 2019 (that is how good it is) check it out if you haven't already! This one is great too but I prefer the vocals on the first one.
HAPPY THANKSGIVING , to you and your family!!! 🍗🍗🍗
love this album. don't rank it as high as the debut, but it'll be in my top ten fo sho
It’s a killer!
Hello Pete Pardo I Hope You Have A Great Wonderful Happy And Healthy Thanksgiving Holiday.🦃🦃🦃🦃🦃🦃🦃🦃🦃🦃🦃🦃
This album was absolutely FIRE
My grandma used to make fun of me saying "cool" back in the day. Now I'm finding it silly how everybody's saying "fire" these days. lol
I was going to totally ignore this album solely based on that ridiculous album cover. But, ya know, I just sampled some of it and it's actually kinda good.
You were going to ignore music based on the album cover, Riiight. How dumb are you lmao
I’ve been a lot into Saxon and Diamond Head lately… if this band has any similarities I’ll jump head first! Cheers 🥃
Awesome album. Sounds like it came from the 80s.
I don't know, i was a bit disappointed with the new album. I think Riot City for me has the same problem as Eternal Champion - because of their fantastic debuts they created expectations that were really hard to satisfy. Both their sophomore albums are good in their own right, but compared to the debuts just a small step back imho.
I agree. I prefer their original singer over the new one.
This could be so much better with a top notch producer like Zeus or Andy Sneap. Obviously they arent gonna get guys like that or a big recording budget being on a smaller label. If they could get on a bigger label and have a higher budget and a well known producer then they could really have something there.
Not for me this is my least favorite kind of metal.
