Sentinel Beast

Whenever "80s female-fronted speed metal" is invoked, we all think about Acid, Znöwhite and Détente. Sentinel Beast deserve to be in this reference list as their only album delivers a killer rendition of the genre - heavy, dark, catchy, energetic and simply great. Good production and execution, great songs: we would have enjoyed at least two more albums. The Iron Maiden cover is a ripper, and the whole album is a classic for fans of early Nasty Savage and the aforementioned trio of cult acts. Thrash til zer!
