NO REMORSE Records - Weekly Arrival 6/03

STRATOVARIUS - NEMESIS

Featuring some powerful vocal passages and thunderous guitars, Stratovarius manage to �modernize� their sound without too many growing pains. Nemesis is simply epic: an almost monumental collection of songs that I believe will stand out, even in a catalog this vast. Available in CD.

SAXON - SACRIFICE

In terms of production, Sacrifice is quite literally top notch. Produced by Andy Sneap (who�s worked with and for countless heavy metal groups), Saxon has found a sound that is polished suiting the record perfectly. Overall, if you liked the rest of Saxon�s discography you�re bound to enjoy this.

SCREAMER - PHOENIX

Straightforward metal, catchy, yet exceedingly choral choruses, strong Metal riffing along with a few Rock prickles, absolute beats of steel and rhythm based bass, is the key in order to recapture the once glorious British moments al�a IRON MAIDEN, early SATAN, TOKYO BLADE, BUDGIE among others and trivial UFO and LED ZEPPELIN sways. Available in Ltd Edition 350 copies black vinyl � gatefold LP and in CD.

TRATORS GATE - DEVIL TAKES THE HIGH ROAD

Traitors Gate are one of the best of those elegantly melodic, yet biting, �Well spoken� sounding N.W.O.B.H.M. bands. Hell I�d almost pick it up alone for the magnificent illustration work on the front cover. Available in Ltd Edition 350 copies black vinyl � gatefold + poster LP.

WITCHBURNER - BLOODTHIRSTY EYES

WITCHBURNER�s latest release is just a fucking killer. If you are a fan of straight old school Thrash, this is your band. For fans of DESTRUCTION, SUICIDAL TENDENCIES,  ANTHRAX. Available in Ltd Edition 350 copies black vinyl � gatefold LP and in CD.

WITCHGRAVE - WITCHGRAVE

It sounds and feels so 80�s and it does so in such a pure disinterested way, I can't help but give it a nod of approval. Available in Ltd Edition 500 copies black vinyl � gatefold + poster LP and in CD.

VALOR - THE YONDER ANSWER

The music is ornamented with vivacious melodies and catchy heavy riffs. For fans of heavy with power metal touch. Available in CD.
