Description

Black vinyl with lyric insert. Limited 500 copies

Metal And The Might is Mausoleum Gate’s 2016 single release and it opens up with an intro, which is a reminiscent of something very familiar… How about the beginning of Ozzy’s Mr. Crowley Hmm. Just listen for yourself! Otherwise Metal And The Might is a straightforward, occasionally even Hammond-driven Heavy Metal song, relying on some traditions of pure Heavy Metal that set my leather boots easily on fire. A super-fun song to listen to, folks! Up next, on the B-side of this nice little vinyl, we get Demon Soul, which is a more varied attempt in terms of song structure, an almost heroic-sounding Heavy Metal song (a catchy chorus part, some good melodies thrown in, with some eeriness and mysteriousness even, etc.). This is what Mausoleum Gate are masters at: writing charismatic, 70s-orientated Heavy Metal. With a pretty small dose of ingredients, some miracles can be done, as that’s what can be said has happened with this two-song teaser from these gatekeepers of the ancient Heavy Metal temple.
