The Metallic Alps(1985) by WALLOP requested by Tapio(The Erlking).
The lyrics(every word is a slogan for me),the music,the drums(Stefan Arnold later in GRAVE DIGGER),the guitar,the vocals everything is the best i have heard.

Not just a simple band it is the definition of Speed Metal or Just Raw Heavy Metal,the cornerstone for me of all the Metal ever created.

They are a top 5 band for me.And if they had more tracks they would have been THE ABSOLUTE band ever existed!

Enjoy!

DaN wrote: Yeah, I listened to the demo a while back and I'm absolutely sure that the tape has been speeded up some time during all the copying. If you really listen to the vocals you can tell that it really doesn't sound natural. Still, it's pretty decent music so I guess I'll have to pick up that LP soon..

Thanks! This is pretty nice, raw & straight-forward stuff. Definitely german metal. I think this will grow on me like the german Tyrant did. Lack Of Power stands out as my favourite tune right now.

Don't worry if TYRANT already growed inside of you then WALLOP will not be late also,you know you are on your way to the right taste of Metal!

I think the link should be removed. Wallop's album is now re-released by Sonic Age Records.

I like that record. I remember F.Amal recommended me this record a while back and I bought it for cheap. Some good moments and good riffs there. The title song is also quite amusing

Edit: weee the artwork was "improved" so the logo is now pink, too! Great move. Actually I like the cover

All of these new Sonic Age re-issues smell like bootlegs to me.

Has anyone investigated whether this is indeed a bootleg or not?

Yes, and I can tell you 100% that this is not a boot. Not weird numbers on the backside of the cd, while in the front is the label's name..all rights reserved, etc...this is a LEGIT re-release..

P.S: This re-release is a must have, since it contains the 2 demos(84+86)

The rerelease and also LIONS BREED one is legit.It has the licence from Axel Thubeauville and SHARK records.

It contains some small rare photos and articles.The demo of 1984 is very slow in comparable with the rip one offered in the internet some months ago.So it is by far preferable the Internet rip you may have.

The 1986 demo is very normal speed sounding and very good.It offers three more songs to us thirsty Wallop fans.

P.S Kiki you like Wallop?
