The album opens quite surprisingly with Napoletan song "Santa Lucia" turning into red alert sirens and bombs followed by the few strong thrash riffs...WOW! It was my first impression, expecting something completely different, which more or less followed through the rest of the song. Very diverse, this relatively long song should impress every heavy metal head like it did it to me... Hearth is beating stronger, waiting for the title track. Classic heavy rolling riffs with some double guitar play combined with perfectly arranged bass and drums characterize this and the following two heavy metal classics. Every one has got its specialties and each is original on it's own way.
"Ulica Roz" is simply perfect song. I was goose-fleshed already when the bass entered after five seconds. As the song is developing more into the bridge and chorus excitement grows into the heavens. Heart breaking double solo crowns this brilliance. I could simply listen over this song for hundred times... In my opinion, the best song on the album! The album ends with a ballad, very specific one. It's much heavier than standard ballads, double guitar gives melodic sound to some pieces, changing with vocal and classic heavy pieces. Very interesting.
I can't actually believe I liked this album at first glance, as such things mostly turn out to be boring and unoriginal. With "Heroy Asfalta" it's just the opposite - after fifty listens it still gets better and better - I would say BRILLIANT. Only bad thing is after less than 40 minutes it's over, so you can't enjoy anymore! Maybe I like it so much because it was my first touch with the band, but whatever, one shouldn't miss to have this album at home!
So I'll give 9,9 only because there is no pure 10 anywhere in the real world
