In which I listen to new songs by bands that are not entirely made up of cis straight white guys and bestow upon the reader my thoughts. You\u2019re welcome.<\/p>\n
Artist: Sign of the Jackyl<\/strong> \u201cBreaking the Spell\u201d opens sounding like Too Fast For Love<\/em>-era M\u00f6tley Cr\u00fce<\/strong>, but instead of having to endure Vince Neil\u2019s nasal drone, we get Laura “Demons Queen” Coller, who is a better singer (although, who isn\u2019t<\/i> a better singer than Neil?). Italy\u2019s Sign of the Jackyl make snarling Sunset Strip-style metal perfect for fans of Cr\u00fce, Poison<\/strong>, and Dokken<\/strong>. \u201cBreaking the Spell\u201d isn\u2019t the only song on their latest album, Heavy Metal Survivors<\/i>, that borrows from Cr\u00fce. I suspect that when they wrote the song \u201cBuio Omega\u201d they\u2019d been listening to \u201cKickstart My Heart\u201d on repeat. But who cares? Cr\u00fce haven\u2019t made music worth listening to in decades. \u201cBreaking the Spell,\u201d with its devil-nightmares, screaming, and blood drinking is nothing but a good time.<\/p>\n
\nAlbum: Heavy Metal Survivors
