Following their tenure in the excellent Pennsylvania-based melodic hard rock band "PYRAMID" (and 2 killer releases available here at Retrospect!) , bassist extraordinaire Steve Kessler and guitar virtuoso Victor Chiarella split lead vocal duties and formed IRONCLAD. The quality and signature sound of Pyramid is still there but Ironclad ventures a little more into the Melodic Metal and Power Metal genres. Everything is a few notches louder and heavier. The killer guitar riffs and shredding solo's are present all over this slamming release as are the powerhouse drums and perhaps the biggest surprises are the awesome vocals!! These guys can really belt it out! Previously unreleased in any format and digitally remastered -- these Metal Monsters will melt your faces.
