Description

Black vinyl with gatefold cover

This metal machine is just like their countrymen Wolf some of the best bands that has come out of Sweden for a very long time. This is pure metal associated with the early 80’s. Obviously, the untrained ear will call these guys an AC/DC rip off, but given the actual composition of Bullet’s tunes on this effort, my sneaking suspicion would be that these guys are much bigger fans of Accept than Ac/dc. Riff-wise, this album is similar to something you might hear on Judas Priest’s early-to-mid-80’s output. The instrumental track about halfway through – ‘City of Sins’ – is a sort of spiritual successor to ‘The Hellion / Electric Eye’. This album wasn’t just thrown together, either. These riffs work well together, and the choruses have an infectious quality that is, of course, similar to the band’s main inspirations, even if the guitarwork is nowhere near, say, Wolf Hoffmann’s. Even so, the songwriting is unmistakably top-notch and the album flows very well from track to track. No ballads to be found, here, just solid 80’s Metal with strong, catchy hooks. The early half is dominated by the album’s title track as well as ‘Dusk til Dawn’. The second half seems to leave the best for last, as ‘The Rebels Return’ is an absolute Heavy Metal anthem with a great mood and build-up. All in all, this album is a strong top-to-bottom effort, with very little filler and a consistently catchy songwriting approach. Really, there’s not much more that can be said about them: just get that visualization of a raw sounding Heavy Metal croon on volume 11. This is another one of those long lost 80s metal classic that never existed in its own time.
