Mike Sabatini posted this clip earlier today on Facebook and completely blew me away. This seems to be shaping as one of the main contenders for THE classic power metal album of 2013:

I downloaded the "Steel Vengeance" track they made available a few months back. Killer track that gets a lot of play from me. The promo you posted does sound epic. Bobby Lucas sounds great with Attacker.

Bobby sounds like an evil mean spiteful hybrid between Harry Conklin and James Rivera. He still has teh leather pipes after all those years for sure. Amazing.

Trapped In Black
THIS is power metal, IMO.

I can say that this is probably my most played release so far this year. Not a filler track on the whole record. I can also say whole heartedly that this is the best that they have ever done; even better than their eighties output.

Yeah, seems like a guy you could just go and hang with.
Another interview (this time with drummer Mike) : http://metalsquadron.com/ . The guy who runs this site is a journalist and a teacher from Norway. This is his english language site. Anyways, another great interview.

Just for my own edification, if you think this is power metal how is it different from "regular" metal? This just sounds like classic metal to me.
