I think
my last encounter with Warrior Soul was on vinyl - their second album
"Drugs, God and the New Republic". So when the opportunity presented itself to
review this album I accepted.

Clark has always been an outspoken and radical figure in metal, and I remember
thinking that the statements became more important than the music, and
that was the main reason why I lost interest in them. The other thing that
bugged me was the punk influences, which I sadly discovered is still a part of their
sound.
This is
in some way still all about attitude and criticism towards society, while they present themselves a lot more straight forward musically
leaving almost no room for melodies and catchiness. 36 minutes of straight
forward rock 'n' roll with an attitude, never leaving a lasting impression on me, but I am sure hard-core Warrior Soul fans will like it
anyway...
