RAGING SPEEDHORN / WE WILL BE DEAD TOMORROW

Ask anyone who has seen Raging Speedhorn live and they will tell you that their studio output does not do them justice, live they are almost unstoppable but their first album although good could have been better, that situation however is about to change.

Their second CD sees the band realise their full potential and will put Corby and the band firmly on the Metal map and all will have to stand up and take notice. The album kicks off with the single "Hate Song" a more potent statement of intent you cannot get and although it's only 2 minuets it's fierce, relentless and very memorable.

At times this CD reminds me of Pantera (Cowboy's From Hell era) and Kyuss at others, blending old and new sounds into a very pleasing sound. Stands out tracks include "Hate Song", "Iron Cobra", "Chronic Youth" and "Ride With The Devil". This is easily one of the Best British Rock CD's of 2002.

TOTAL PLAYING TIME = 40 mins + 11 TRACKS
