Description
Limited to 350 copies on black vinyl with 4 bonus track and insert
Marienthal from Rouen in France was an obscure French heavy metal band that was formed in 1981 and released a single and this vinyl album before calling it a day 6 years later. The strange name and the odd looking cover photo makes it hard to even tell this is an heavy metal album. But you will be surprised, this is one hell of a fine European underground album. Probably the best NWOBHM sounding album to have come out of France during the first half of the 80s. Think of Tygers Of Pan Tang, Tokyo Blade and Riot and you have Marienthal. There are some brilliant guitar and drum work on Prohibition. Recommended for fans of NWOBHM and early 80s metal in general. This 2017 reissue comes with the two tracks from the single as bonus as well as 2 previously unreleased tracks recorded during the same recording session as the single back in 1983
