Sacred Steel is a German based metal group whom are releasing their new album Heavy Metal Sacrifice. Whilst they are not one of the most prominent names in metal Sacred Steel have actually released nine studio albums. This album marks quite a significant occasion for the group as it was twenty years ago that this traditional metal band was formed, and Heavy Metal Sacrifice shows that the band are still doing just fine.
Heavy Metal Sacrifice appears some three years after Sacred Steel's last robust album The Bloodshed Summoning. From the lively title track classic metal fans are well catered for with Heavy Metal Sacrifice, right through to the brief metal/punk influenced and somewhat wacky track called "Iron Donkey". The songs of Sacred Steel are full of hooks and engaging surprises like on "Hail The Godz of War" with its full throttle thrash metal influences and "Vulture Priest" and those engaging tempo alterations, Sacred Steel twin guitar attack regularly dishes out plenty of the good stuff just like on the fired up "Children Of The Sky". If you haven't heard the songs of Sacred Steel but are familiar and fond of groups such as Dream Evil then Heavy Metal Sacrifice is certainly worth a go.
