Frenzy: “Of Hoods And Masks” CD and LP 20th April 2023 Fighter Records. Spanish Heavy Metal band.
The comic book band is back! This time the book is the cover artwork of the album. Catchy riffs, entertaining vocal lines, kick ass solos, everything is here to get one of the best bands in the genre. I’m surprised to hear such a powerful band. The first album was already amazing, this second one is just a masterpiece. Guitarists exchange solos like we used to hear in the eighties band with two shredders.
Frenzy has learned the way to recreate what has been done and this is excellent. Reviving those great tunes, you can only love this band. Keeping their passion for the comic world, seven songs are a conceptual approach inspired by the story of the graphic novel Watchmen. It’s such a great opportunity to mix two passions, music, and comic books. We all grew up with many comics, Heavy Metal music is pretty well chosen for those legendary tales.
Their guitarist had an accident but had the time to come back on his feet to be ready for live shows, the album seems to be ready a while ago but the events made it to be ready on time for the new year. This album has great guitar solos that will blow you away, the secret is simply having lots of guest friends.
Guitar solos in Give Me Shred (or Give Me Death): Frenzy (Luis, Alex, Billy), Sacral Rage (Marios), Hitten (Dani, Johnny), Vultures Vengeance (Tony Scelzi, Tony L.A.), Seven Sisters (Kyle, Graeme), Slowburn (Miguel Coello), Roar (Mario Cano), Adamantia (Fran Soler), Tony Waka.
All those great players for one song, this is some kind of support between bands!
