Duration: 18:15 minutes (5 tracks)
Country: Italy

I wonder – Do I know some Italian band who follow a fashion of NWOBHM? I met now… BLAZING CLASH – their material was sent by TSM Promotions… This time we encounter the classic Heavy Metal without no strange musical traces.

The demo “Blazing Clash (Princess of Rock)” contains five songs. Their music is inspired by the spirit of NWOBHM… Though the picture from the cover-art associated for me with other climate… Of course, the woman (on a bike) fits to climate of NWOBHM but I rather associated it with amusement music. For example the bands (under the sign of Soft Metal or of Hard Rock and even sometimes of Heavy Metal) play such amusement music like MOTLEY CRUE, MOTORHEAD and even JUDAS PRIEST. However those tracks are the brave hymns (with bit of pathos and the majestic climate in style of RUNNING WILD). For that reason I would add a picture with some warrior, hehehe … But we will not succumb for a fashion… From the second side… The songs (“Princess of Rock” and “Made Up to Be A Monster”) haven't an epic mood. It proves, that the compositions of BLAZING CLASH are pretty varied (not only by a mood but first of all by the vocals) and it causes that the songs sometimes remind earlier mentioned JUDAS PRIEST, and even HELLOWEEN.

Generally the music is dynamic, predatory and simultaneously does not be devoid of melody, catchy refrains or of accents as well as of choirs – it is a noble Heavy Metal… but unfortunately it doesn't bring in a nothing new.
