Stallion are a new traditional heavy metal band from Germany. Axl and Paul have been sharing a flat for the last six years. As they were not able to find suitable musicians for their project, the two decided to record their debut mini-album Mounting The World on their own accord. Paul was handling the vocals and Axl played all the instruments on the six tracks. However, Stallion is not a mere studio project. The band is one of the hottest newcomers in German Metal at the moment. The opener of Mounting The World, Canadian Steele, is a nod to the New Wave Of Canadian Metal. Stallion is friends with current Canadian Metal bands such as Cauldron, Axxion, Skull Fist and Striker (not to forget Iron Kingdom). This does not mean, however, that they’re trying to copy their sound. Far from it. We wanted to cover a wide spectrum of different metal styles, explains Paul. And I do think that we have achieved just that, he continues. We’re just playing the stuff we’d like to listen to anyway. Lyrically, I’m writing about what happens to me in everyday life. That’s the inspiration for me. Let’s have a closer look at the individual songs: The mentioned Canadian Steele is our Speed Metal hymn. Some people have written to us in English because they thought we are Canadian, laughs Paul. ‘Give It Up is more like a groovy Hard Rock number. And Shadow Run is almost Thrash Metal. This sort of sums up the variety of different styles we are playing. Killing Time and The Right One are two songs we definitely wanted to have on the album. In the end, it is the mixture that makes Stallion so strong. A superb cover version of Rock Goddess’ Heavy Metal Rock n Roll rounds off this fantastic mini-album. It was very important to us to pay tribute to this extremely underrated band from Great Britain, explains Paul. Rock Goddess was such a superb band. We wanted to have a cover version on the album, that’s for sure. Heavy Metal Rock n Roll is a song not too many people know. But it is surely one of the forgotten classics of heavy metal music. In addition to that, it sums up the mixture of different styles perfectly. We are big fans of the first Rock Goddess album, by the way. They are a superb all-female Metal band. Timeless stuff.
