PRIMAL FEAR - NUCLEAR FIRE (Nuclear Blast - 2001): This is the band of ex Gamma Ray, Ralf Scheppers and the guitarist from Sinner, Matt Sinner. And this is already their third recording. What we find here is what we could find in their first two records but better done (in fact I didn´t like too much their last record "Jaws of Death"), that is a heavy metal in the vein of de Judas Priest (Scheppers is everytime more similar to Halford) but with a little touch of german power metal, esentially in the choruses. The music is not too original, but is really powerful. Lovers of good heavy metal will be completely satisfied with this CD. "Kiss of death" is a really powerful song of the kind that you sing with a fist in the air, a heavy metal hymn. The discharges have no rest: "Back from Hell" (withScheppers singing at the maximum of his possibilities) , "Now or Never", "Fight the Fire" (to tell some names of the songs) with galloping drumming, breaking guitar sound and the lungs of Scheppers spitting the lyrics. Recommended to lovers of heavy/power metal. Contact: www.nuclearblast.de
