    If Stryper did biker rock, perhaps this would be Krush. A much grittier vocal, and more laid-back 80's metal instrumentation may also lend itself worthy to fans of Fire & Love era Guardian. Though Phil Castillo's guitars downright rock and Dave Meriwether sings like he means it, a lot of this is a little dated, since most bands today refrain from lyrical clichés like the term "lock & load." But then, maybe Krush isn't trying to be like most bands. Check out the band's song, "Beside Me," on this issue's Hard Music Sampler CD, and decide for yourself.
