Review : CD

Whoever Crimson Cult are, they’re good at it. Good at peddling teutonic power/speed/heavy metal they knock it off here with taste and unashamed panache which keeps most of these 10 songs pretty appealing. Austria is where they come from a part called Salzburg to be exact and this happens to be their debut.

Crimson Cult sound like a mix of Running Wild, Rage, Dio and a bit of Metallica as well. Quite Sabbath-y too at the best of moments, the solos and choruses are often good and throw in a bluesy drive to a few as well.

80/100
