Heaven's Metal group
Warlord (not to be confused with a previous hard rock outfit of the same name) offers their first full-length album for Solid State Records with
Rock the Foe Hammer. Their spiritual message comes across loud and clear, but they may have concentrated on it at the expense of the music: too many songs meander from riff to riff without building to climaxes or touching on memorable musical themes. It isn't that the music isn't headbang-worthy; it's just that the compositions need a clearer, tighter focus to be really effective. ~ Steve Huey
