im gonna post the same i did on the other thread...plus everyone has a thread about their bands except for me

complete songs from new album up www.myspace.com/voltaxband

i know lots of you here prefer new bands that copy the exact sound of an 80s band (which i have always think is lame)...well give us a try, no,we are not from Europe,no, we DONT try as hard as possible to sound as one 80s band (you name it) and NO! we dont try to be "old school" for the sake of it, we hate that term, we play heavy metal and thats that...we try to have variety on our songs,we try to have melody and catchiness too without being wimpy, we paid good money for our production,so give us a try all of you bitter people of the forum (nah im kidding ,love u all haha)

accepting orders already

and hoping that we can play in europe sometime soon....

I really wish more bands thought this way.

Looks like another "must have" to me. I already own the debut, which already was great. Looking forward to get my hands on this.

Can't comment on the music now (I'm at work), but I like your attitude mate! I also hate the term "old school". Heavy metal is the law!

This is SO RAD! The production might be my favorite thing about it.

Isn't that pretty much how all metal bands think? Everybody wants to play heavy metal, everybody tries to have variety in their songs and nobody really intentionally tries to copy just one band.

And wether or not Voltax hate the term "old school", their music is still 100 percent old school.
