Crystal Viper - Legends - 2010


Legends

In comparison to their previous output I've got to say that Legends is their most pristine sounding release, and the production is a lot clearer and brighter than the last two. The riffs are excellent as per usual, catchy and very Running Wild. The rhythm section is spot on, quality sticks work courtesy of "Golem" (Tomasz Danczak) which serves as the perfect backbone, and Tom Woryna's bass is kept in the mix right where it belongs. Returning to the guitars, Andy Wave has done a cracking job, as mentioned before the riffs are great and catchy, the solos again are spot on, and the melodies are perfectly catchy and hooky and have kept me going back to this.

02. Ghost Ship

After kicking my ass with their debut The Curse of the Crystal Viper and their compilation The Last Axeman, Crystal Viper release this album, Metal Nation. So my expectations weren't as high because I didn't think they could possibly top those records. couldn't have been more wrong, because this album is a million times better than the first in every way possible.

Out of Poland – land of grim pagan Black Metal and savage Death – Crystal Viper come out of nowhere to kick your ass. This is a True Metal band cast in the same mold as killer acts like Valkija or Wotan – true metal with a kick of speed and a taste for the epic. Crystal Viper list both Running Wild and Manilla Road as influences, and you can hear both those fine bands in the mix here.
