HELEVORN Release Dark And Gloomy New Doom Metal Album “Espectres”
Spain's renowned doom metal band Helevorn is now dropping their fifth studio album, “Espectres” which promises to deliver a gloomy, gothic, and doomy metal listening experience.
On This Day in Metal August 17th 1994 "The Heavy Metal Hurricane" featuring Scorpions, Quiet Riot, Helix and Kick Axe rolled into the CNE Grandstand in Toronto.
Scorpions were in town supporting their highly acclaim album Love at First Sting and Quiet Riot with their just released second album Condition Critical. Helix had released Walkin' the Razor's Edge and Kick Axe with Vices.
Apparently, reporter Keith Sharp thought Quiet Riot sucked that day. He said:
"At no point during their one-hour set did Quiet Riot look like winning over a near comatose audience of some 18,000 headbangers. Quite simply, Quiet Riot failed to spark any line of communication between themselves and the crowd. For the most part, the band's material is average to say the least with only their two Slades hits: Cum Feel the Noize and Mama Weer All Crazee Now, plus the set-closing Metal Health stirring any form of enthusiasm from the masses."
