Classic Metal
Reviewed by Doug Van Pelt
Regency went back into its three year old vaults to pull out some debut material from bands who went on to bigger and better things. Pretty good idea! Featured are: Mastedon, with "Wasn't It Love"; Guardian, with "Marching On", and "Spiritual Warfare"; Believer, with "The Chosen"; Rage Of Angels, with "Don't Give Up", and "Do You Still Believe In Love?"; Deliverance, with "Attack" - a concert favorite; The Lead, with "Tunnel Vision"; Soldier, who since broke up, with "Tears"; and Arsenal, who's debut album with Regency hits anyday now, with "Stand Strong". For those who don't have the "California Metal" albums, "East Coast Metal", and Rage Of Angel's debut album; this is something you need to hear.
