Brown-Sock's Shit Hole: Taist Of Iron (USA)

Taist Of Iron (USA) - Resurrection (1984)

Back when I uploaded Acid's self titled album I said I couldn't think of any Female Fronted bands I loved more than Acid. Well to me, this one actually tops Acid, but only very slightly, followed closely by Malisha's Serve Your Savage Beast. I seriously can't get enough of this album and I am not sure how many times I've listened to it back to back. It is a very strange sounding album though, I must say. One thing I love is that the guitar tone as well as playing style is quite clearly Van Halen inspired. The track Metal Taco is pretty much Eruption, only slightly different. The whole album has a very dark theme to it, and I can't really choose a favourite song, but I really enjoy the track Ouija. It is actually a strange song to be honest, but I love it and the darkness present in the album is really apparent here.

Since this LP in its original pressing is super rare I have my very own rip for everyone to hear the differences between the original and the recent re-release. Just so we know, I like both versions. In some places on the re-release the guitar sounds awesome. In the intro track, Resurrection on the original LP there are a lot of things that seem to have been taken out in the re-release. Theres a few guitar layers and from memory a vocal track in the background. So for those who haven't heard it, here it is and I highly suggest you hear this. For those that have heard the re-release, I also highly recommend this. So no matter what, you should hear this.
