They're not that good? but at least they're Metal

You're one of those guys (or girls) stuck in the eighties? Do you like spikes, long hair, denim vests, bullet belts, patches and all that Heavy Metal paraphernalia?
Does the initials NWOBHM mean something to you?
If you answered yes to all of the above, then stop reading and get this record immediately, if you dislike all of the mentioned, also, stop reading right now.

WAIT! Don't go yet! Let me finish here for god's sake, I don't write fucking reviews for nothing, (well, yes... for the free Cd's but that's not the point).
As always, drifting from the main point. Let's get back.

Yeah I know these guys look funny, just take a look at the cover art, the drummer looks like freakin' Gollum! And don't get me started with the rest of them!
You'll find in this Cd pure eighties Heavy Metal, plus beer, war, egomania, chicks, and all those interesting lyrical subjects that the band expose.

At times this reminds me of Iron Maiden, at times reminds me of Grave Digger, and at times Judas Priest and older Helloween. The thing here is, why listen to this if you can listen Judas Priest, Iron Maiden and Grave Digger?
My point is, if I want to listen Iron Maiden, I would listen to Iron Maiden, not Steelpreacher.

These guys are so worried about being Metal, that they completely lose sight of things, you're Metal... so what?
One of the biggest mistakes in a tracklist is including the word Metal in the song titles, and unfortunately these guys did it. Twice.

Don't get me wrong, I love Heavy Metal bands, but I'm not a sucker for wimpy tributes like this one, so my recommendation for these guys is, grab a beer, calm down and DON'T quit your dayjobs.
Oh and please, if you're thinking of releasing a new album soon, please omit the silly photographs in the booklet.
If being Metal equals being idiotic, I rather prefer country music.
