Burning Starr Defiance Sampler

[Kadiem666]

The voice is arresting but if it was Mike Tirell there it would be much better 'cause his quality vocal isn't easy to replace though.

[NYBloodyArrow7400]

very Manowar style lyrics. I like it.

[SteeleHard]

Starr, much Manowar speech than ever hahahahaha! Great Man, return to Virgin Steele and make them Rock again! Visions of Eden was a really crap!

[SteeleHard]

Totally agree, Virgin Steele deserves much better stuff than the actual light power kind, they must Return to the Rock times with the Age Of Consent, and Noble Savage, when they really Rock!

[TheDrumhell718]

Great Drums on  The Black Clouds of Thanos

[Hellenicwarrior84]

the new album is amazing!! it kicks many asses!! new guitarists, please listen to Jack Starr and not bullshit like slipknot etc! it will help you to be better musicians!!

[MonsterZeroo]

I need a copy also, dang it!! CHEERS, Jack and co. "clink"

[stratluvr]

thanks man,I just hope you can find a copy somewhere lol

[ProudToBLoud]

Listening to this sampler shows that this cd is all killer and no filler, i am gonna buy a copy of this, great stuff jack.

[robbie9167]

Great effort guys. Vocals are outstanding.

I picked it up for "The King Must Die" and to see what you did with "Catch The Rainbow",

(a favorite of mine). Very nicely done.

I have been a Starr fan for years and was glad to see this release.

Thanks guys.

[voodoo0003]

sweet riffs whens the mackinaw city dates. lol!

[toddhall87]

I don't think we will be playing Mackinaw City any time soon, but I'll be there next week. :^)

[MonsterZeroo]

Your lucky...I loved to go there almost every summer..CHEERS!

[kblh19wales]

catchy lyrics great guitars, lovin the first song the most, the rest are great but the first sticks out to me the most.

[MusashiX09]

Dudes, this is my album of the week! Can't get enough.

[stratluvr]

Donny T is cool ,keep on rockin

[edwardcullenlover961]

Hi.

My dad knows Todd Hall and Jon Hall From Harlet.

He goes by Donny T.

Do you still remeber him? O:

[toddhall87]

We definitely remember Donny T. Jon just saw him a couple of weeks ago. It has been a long time for me. Tell him I said hello!

[edwardcullenlover961]

Cool.

My dad says hello.

I cant belive he knows a band though.

And you sing really good Todd.

I love this band.

[toddhall87]

I appreciate the compliment. Tell your dad I said hello too!

[edwardcullenlover961]

Do you know when Jons concert is again?

My dad wants to know.

Yeah.

Alot of people still call him Donny T.

[3offjimmy]

I was at the first row at the MCF and I bought your new album there.

It's like an infection , now I'm listening to it all the time. Great!

[stratluvr]

Thank Nnikos for the great comment and as you know Greece was the country that gave me a record deal when no one else would in 2003 and because of that Burning Starr is back ,Keep the Metal Burning

[nnikos33]

Burning Starr offered a work of great quality thanks to the guitar work and

brilliant songwriting of the Grandmaster.

Todd Hall is an amazing singer...

Thank you for everything mr.Jack Starr and co.

Hope to see you playing in Greece-your

name is of a legend here !!!

[metalicdemon]

This sounds absolutely fantastic!

[lawlbob]

Great album!

The booklet was a bit messy though. Some lyrics weren't there at all, and some were posted several times. Ancient Ones are also listed as the first track, but the lyrics fit Inquisitor...

But it doesn't matter, because the music is great!

[teskjekjerringa]

thisis great. i would love to see you on stage on norway rock next year =)

[annatria]

good

[stratluvr]

wow very well put, and we are all in agreement that Todd is a very unique talent that will only get bigger

[SaginawMusicFan]

With the release of BURNING STARR's "Defiance" the entire metal nation can hear the vocal prowess of Todd Michael Hall that Saginaw, Michigan USA has known for 25 years. May this immense talent continue to shine!

[LeopardJoy]

Love it! subscribed!

All the best,

Joy/the Leopard Lounge

[stratluvr]

Thanks Joy

Its really great to hear that this new cd is getting heard in the Leopard Lounge ,Metal On

[stratluvr]

the album was produced by Joey Demaio who is the bass player of Manowar

[hardfad]

COOL album .. why that vid is related to MANOWAR ??

[hersonice]

where can I buy the cd in the USA? Love this song writer and guitarist.

[stratluvr]

Hi Steve

Thanks so much for the nice comment ,we are happy that you like the cd and hope to come to Austria soon,Keep Rockin,JS

[mibsteve]

I bought this cd at the day of the release in Austria... My intention was to buy the debut of "Crimson Cult", but it wasn´t stored, so I bought this one and it was definately the best thing I could have done!

[Maiden666Kim]

Sounds really great! I think theese songs will sound absolutely great live! So drag your band to Gothenborg, Sweden! I will be in the front! Keep on Rocking guys!

[MaxxxwellC]

This is great stuff!

[stratluvr]

Yes Dobrinka

We would love to visit your country,right now there are no plans but Magic Circle band Manowar loves to play there so it must be cool,Keep on Rockin,Jack

[dobrinka69]

Good work! I'd love to see you live!

Ever thought of coming to Bulgaria?

[FATBACK555444]

pretty good

[AllHailTheMetalKing]

This ain't right. Nobody is suppose to top the Metal Kings. Why can't Manowar write like this any more? What gives? I can't wait to see Starr again in Germany. They rocked big time last year. All hail!!

[Acrobatx]

- Why can´t Manowar write like this anymore? - Because they don´t have a good guitarist anymore. Just listen to Ross´ New Metal leader - that´s exactly the element that is missing nowadays. They released 6 Albums from 1982 - 1989 wich remain classics.

From 1989 to 2009 they´ve released 4 albums but a million DVD´s and live CD´s!! Draw your own conclusions

[metalicdemon]

this albumb sound like its gonna top the legends, virgin steele

[stratluvr]

thanks but that is not our intention and anyway I started Virgin Steele and I just wish they would have gotten bigger because it would help me in the same way that Manowar's fame is helping Ross the Boss.I am an important part of the VIrgin Steele saga and I would love to see them get to the next level in metal as I am starting to do

[heavymetal1983]

cool tunes!

[psycotidusreeves]

Jack i am addicted to your music now. You are an insane guitarist and this band seems so amazing. Thanks for the updates by mail bud. I hope to be uploading some stuff with my band soon. Best of wishes.

Psyco.

[jowox]

pretty good but it´s always hard to judge an album by samples. I think Todd Hall is a mike tirelli for these times, awesome high register and also a solid low register. He will be featured in my 4 octave wonder series soon!

Keep metal alive!

[stratluvr]

hi jowox

very interesting comment in view of the fact that some reviewers actually thought that Todd was Mike Tirelli when we appeared at shows in Germany ,I think that they are both great singers and Mike on a good day can kick Geoff Tate's and Bruce Dickinson's ass ,he is a force of nature

[gusmontreal]

cant possibly be heavier than this.....

[stratluvr]

thanks so much for the encouraging words ,Keep the metal burning,Jack

[tommytunes316]

WOW!!! This is FANTASTIC!!! The shot in the arm, metal needs right now. Really love, "The Day Of The Reaper, Defiance, The King Must Die, Catch The Rainbow and The Beast Inside. Excellent Work Jack.

[stratluvr]

thanks tommy

for the kind words .we are grateful to be able to make the music we love and to go to strange countries ,meet beautiful women,get paid large sums of money and get to kick ass ,Keep Rockin

[ghostspy13]

YEAH ! This album is great!

Screaming guitar full of passion and soul, dragging sounds, fat riffs, excellent melodies, ferocious solos, a voluminous power voice and the heaviness of 80s metal!

DEFIANCE is simply irresistible!

The rapid Power Metal song The King must die makes my feet dance!

The terrific True Metal song Defiance almost made me cry but also helped to stand up again. It works like a magic medicine.

Damn cool pictures, too! Congratulations!

[ricever1]

Great work Jack ! I like the Defiance song . Are you still playing the Festival in Germany ? I'm so proud :-)

[stratluvr]

thanks Veronica

we are playing in Lorely Amptheatre from what I understand last year Metallica headlined a show there so it is a cool place to play

[RobinStrower]

Fantastic songs, Jack.

Sound is excellent. Ordered.

5*

[LudwigGod]
