KICK ASS, Erika!!!! This is pretty awesome! Loved your work with AT, and love this as well! Great to see you doin' some kick ass metal! Any plans for coming to the NY area???
You're a very gifted vocalist, keep up the great work!!!!
This is what metal is about. Raw, real and true. Fuckin A. I like to see women singin with some GUTS - not dressing in a flowy dress, putting talcum power on there face and standing on a fan :p Dont get me wrong classical singing is cool, but this is the real shit.
Wait til you hear the new concept album coming out in September. The band has taken a huge leap forward in their songcraft and sheer power with Jason at the helm.
:D fuckin unreal & that riff at 2:44 is fuckin killer. Perfect oldschool guitar tone circa 82/83, true metal sound.
That's the problem with most other new bands, they claim to have an oldschool style & sound, but they'll use a shitty modern tone & tuning, but this is great. Definitly elements of old school speed metal, thrash & NWOBHM.
So while I was dreaming last night I had a dream about playing a kickass metal song on Rockband with my friends. It was a song I'd never heard before, but in the dream it was awesome, so I sought it out. And it's name? Demonslayer.
Just checked out Ignitor's new CD ROAD OF BONES and was very impressed... good stuff for fans of Priest, Maiden, Dio, etc. All you old school metal fans should give it a spin...
This is an insult!! Erika please, go back to Autumn Tears!! THAT was far much better!! Yes, those who find here a very nice voice are right... look for Autumn Tears and see what Erika can actually do.
Everyone's got a right to like what they like - I know many AT fans will not like my new band, but that's how it goes. Autumn Tears was fun, but in the end it wasn't me. This is me. I'm a metal gal...
@SilenceOfChaos Okay okay, I once upon a time thought that lyrics in metal started sounding worse and worse, in the end it was just emo lyrics that didnt fit the music at all.
Now this... now this shit... woah, its like the oldschool golden years all over again! Havent heard anything that give me this kind of fire ever since I went tired from listening to Iron maiden again and again.
And you`re lyrics? Excellent, perfect (assuming that`s you), I withdraw my previous statement. Im a fan now
I care about the chick: she sings VERY WELL!!! The first sentence of my post (5 months ago!) was not fair and I wish I could delete it, but I can't.
Anyway, I prefer Autumn Tears, but she is free to use her talent (a lot she has, indeed) to do whatever she wants (in the meanwhile I'll stick to AT ;)
This was pretty crisply executed. She has a tremendous voice with some authority behind it and the guitar players (one of whom looks like the guy from Faith No More) were very good. But this song doesn't really have any direction. It sounds rather labored and one can only conclude they used it because they didn't have anything better. So they need some songwriting help to carve out more focused compositions.
oh fuck yeah! Thanks for putting this on. It's a band I never knew existed but their right up there with the old school masters and that woman's voice! Damn she was born to sing metal!
It has a very old school metal feel to it. It definately gets better as the song progresses. The first minute of the song was pretty weak and just about lost my interest completely.

Erika is great check her out with her old band Autumn Tears, I agree too bad they
replaced her with Jason McMaster, he open up for Riot here in San Antonio and
he and his band Broken Teeth or what ever they sucked, He's horriable live just
noise, I've seen him with Watchtower same thing. Ok when is the next band playin...
