A powerful storm is brewing to take place in 2010 and at the center of that storm is the latest album from Oregon headbangers, Saint. After 25 years of defining the essence of heavy metal, Hell Blade (the band's 8th studio album) hits the stage with all guns blazing and ready to take no prisoners. This is a tremendous heavy metal machine that hits on all cylinders with this disc. The band has assembled a massive array of classic metal thunder. Josh Kramer is in full throated glory. The drum sound drives and plows this release into total submission. Jerry Johnson's guitar playing is forthright and dominant. Energy just oozes out of the performances given. All this is packaged in a deluxe 8 panel foldout full color Digipak!
