BYFIST, the band that seem to have been a going concern since the late eighties. During the days of vine and roses I believe they released two EP´s, "You Should Have Known" and "Adrenalin". Today BYFIST consists of guitarists Davey Lee and Notch Vara, bass player Rey Gone, drummer Jess Vara and singer Vikk Real.
This disc contains four tracks, "Eternal Damnation",
"Meltdown", "Left to Die" and "Mary Celeste".
The songs are aces if you like bands like ANGELWITCH but I gather that
MERCYFUL FATE has been an influence too. Album opener "Eternal Damnation"
sounds and has an overall feel of MERCYFUL FATE. "Meltdown"
is typical American 80-ies heavy metal, "Left to Die" has a
thrashy chorus and "Mary Celeste" could well have been featured
on ANGELWITCH´S first album! I can't find any real weaknesses on
this album but I'm always restrictive about grading anything beneath full-length
releases. If you're into American heavy metal/NWOBHM send a mail to sabarecords2000@yahoo.com
