Take No Prisoners (CD, fra Alcatrazz

Alcatrazz is launching their upcoming album 'Take No Prisoners'.

The Heavy Metal icons from LA deliver songs at warp factor 10 on their sixth studio album, the third in three years. The album includes 10 captivating, charismatic tracks, each showcasing the unique fusion of American classic rock with the hard rock attitude of British metal. 'Take No Prisoners' comes with the energy of Alcatrazz, packed with encompassing melodies and 'Road Warrior' riffs.

'Little Viper' features a guitar that cuts through everything and ends in a storm, an attack reminiscent of Dio; but there are also calmer, extensive songs like the epic 'Strangers', and the album ends with the focal point 'Bring On The Rawk'. Without a doubt, Alcatrazz is kicking ass.

With Doogie White on vocals, Joe Stump on guitar, Jimmy Waldo on keyboards, Gary Shea on bass, and Larry Paterson on drums, this work is a loud and proud classic rock album, produced by Giles Lavery and Waldo. 'Take No Prisoners' is in the tradition that Alcatrazz is known for, with excellent guitars, thundering rhythms, and vocals reminiscent of the Dio/Rainbow era.
