Side B:
One of the earliest Finnish discoveries of the HM collector world + no known instances of deadstock unearthings = as notoriously difficult to find as ever. This brand of hammond-infused, Rainbow'oid (yes, that's a word now) Scandinavian Hardrockmetal has always had a rather wide appeal, no matter if the year of release is about 5 years too late this time. It also looks very nice (because space) so don't expect to run into this one haphazardly any time soon.
The A-side
really isn't that much of an eye(ear)raiser. Imagine a plodding, more 80's sounding "Man On The Silver Mountain" and you'll get the idea. Not bad, but it's the B-side you'll wanna put on the mix-tape. "Fireracer" races along like the best, fastest numbers of my old countrymen like 220 Volt, Blacksmith, Hiroshima etc. Great chorus, 'serious' vocals, beautiful guitar harmonies, all that neat shit essential to the genre. Hyvää paskaa!
