Info:
UK NWOBHM legends CHROME MOLLY have staged a noble come back. These complicated gents have chosen to stick it out and return supercharged after a long hiatus. It is hard to believe that their last first full-length album was 1990! I never heard “Slaphead”, but I really dug their first two albums! However, like most of the influential '80s acts, they have altered their style. This release is more raw and rough, and not as rockin', or as melodic as the now hard to find “Angst” album.
Thanks for the angst guys, and for choosing to cut loose and deliver the goods again. Fans of newer TYGERS OF PAN TANG, BLITZKRIEG, SAVAGE, and SARACEN should feel right at home. The album begins with a strong anthem in the gritty and socially apropos “Corporation Fear”. Here the gunpowder diplomacy is unveiled. This is followed by the sardonic “TV Cops” which has a strong LED ZEPPELIN vibe, while “All In My Mind” is an homage to DEEP PURPLE.
