Night Demon -- S/T EP expanded edition review

                        

                              Night Demon – EP expanded Edtion

How can I describe Night Demon in two words? “HEAVY METAL” These guys just rip. Now I figured I do a review of the expended edition of this EP. I would suggest you try to get your hands on a vinyl copy before they are all sold out from High Roller records.  OK let’s start with the review.

The first song Night Demon is definitely an anthem that will get you headbanging and fistbanging. You got some great riffs and also I love the bass tone in this song. I like how in the middle of the song the bass and guitar are playing the same harmonies together and it reminds me of early Maiden. The Chalice has some cool bass work especially with the intro. It seems this song is becoming a live staple for them. Ancient, Ancient Evil!! This song just gets me everytime. It’s so darn catchy. Ritual has some great guitar and this song just sounds very Diamond Head influenced (which isn't a bad thing it’s a compliment).

Now if these guys were older and it had an older recording quality I would have told you that these guys were a lost N.W.O.B.H.M gem. 

There are a lot of new bands but this is the first band I can say with a 100% conviction that sound like that they got transported from 1980 to now. If you listen to the guitar tone and the vocal’s and vocal lines it just screams N.W.O.B.H.M. I think the singer Jarvis sounds like a harsher/harder version of Sean Harris of Diamond Head.

On the Expanded edition you get two covers and two live tracks.their cover of Lightning to the nations it’s just awesome. Really the best Diamond Head cover I have heard so far. You can tell they really tried their best and they absolutely delivered on it. I was glad to hear Axe Crazy by Jaguar I think they really gave the song justice and it’s cool to see them covering a bit more obscure N.W.O.B.H.M song. The two live tracks from their first gig Radar Love and Ritual both sounds fantastic. Even if you have the EP these songs just make buying the EP totally worth it.

This is one of the best EP’s every released in my honest opinion. I own three versions of it. I think I’m tad obsessed with this EP (hahaha). So pick it up and if you don’t you will be regretting you didn’t.  10/10 flawless
