Any fans of this band here? I stumbled upon them a few days ago on YouTube and ordered their latest album on vinyl. Another “throwback” band that sounds like they’ve come right out of the 80’s. Only reason I clicked on the video was because the thumbnail looked like an old 80’s video and I thought maybe it was a band I never heard of before from back in the day.
Anyways, listening to the vinyl now, and it’s nothing mind blowing, but still fucking rocks. Little bit like Show no Mercy era Slayer vibe minus the harsh vocals and satanic theme, mixed with maybe Exciter? I don’t know, they come from Germany, and have three albums so far. Their latest is called Dawn of the Axe, so far it’s really good. Might hunt down their other two here one day soon.

I think I've heard the name before, though I might be confusing them with Brute Force, who were a local New Jersey band back in the day.
I dig that YouTube clip though!

First time I've ever heard of them. Good song. Sounds like it should be on Angel Dust's "Into The Dark Past".
