AGENT
STEEL - Alienigma
Mascot Los Angeles Sci-Fi thrash-metal masters Agent Steel return with yet
another explosive release. Juan Garcia and company sound stronger than ever,
combining traditional power metal anthems with modern thrash-metal riffs and
conceptually futuristic lyrics. Bruce Hall's vocals are quite impressive,
sounding rugged and authoritative, and the blistering guitar work and driving
riffs from Juan Garcia and Bernie Versailles are masterful making Alienigma
Agent Steel's best effort since Skeptics Apocalypse. My favorite cuts are the
opener "Fashioned From Dust," "Hail To The Chief," "Extinct," and the
master-thrash closer "Lamb To the Slaughter." With all the influx and attention
being put on modern thrash/death/hardcore bands these days one can easily
overlook some of the great new releases from pioneering thrash-metal bands like
Agent Steel, Exodus, Overkill, and Death Angel. So in closing I thought it'd be
appropriate to quote my old college professor: "Learn your history...Don't be an
ignoramus!"
