ICE WAR - MANIFEST DESTINY CD

ICE WAR once again deliberately shelters itself from the gloss 'n' dross of nowadays "metal," instead returning to the archaic (and anarchic) splendor of late '70s and early '80s HEAVY METAL. No  thrash, not even speed metal, ICE WAR's fist-pumping, invigorating variety of heavy metal recalls the early days of the NWOBHM as well as the early American metal scene. T he production is fuller here in its rawness, retaining that garage grit that endeared the band early on whilst exhibiting a clarity that allows these eight songs to become the anthems they so rightfully are.
