If you think metal is only from England and the US you need to stop watching MTV and start exploring. There’s no better place to start than with the godly Lethal Saint, from Cyprus, who have just released their new single ‘Beast Strikes Back.’ Here’s the low-down on their three-horned offering.
Saint Strikes Back
Opening in the most intense way possible was a wise choice by Lethal Saint, with a fantastic concoction of thrash and classic metal. Brief bursts of technicality are the highlight of this number, showing the band are far from your average 80s wannabes.
Hang By Your Balls
‘Hang By Your Balls’ is Saint at their most anthemic, displaying some mid-paced madness. Similar to Teutonic titans Accept, ‘Hang By Your Balls’ is one of those songs that makes your fist reach the sky without you even realising.
Out For The Kill
Starting with a cheesy demonic laugh, ‘Out For The Kill’ underlines Saint’s need for speed. Their closing number has a bit of power metal flair to it without become overly melodic or flimsy. File this song under blistering or intense.
It seems Lethal Saint not only know the number of the beast, they have a direct line to him and make regular calls.
