This record is an ultimate example of the fact that you can know in your heart when you see an album cover, see the year it was made, that it's going to be amazing. I had just started listening to more obscure bands, in 1999 or so, and heard one song by Gotham City. Found this record some months later and bought it without hesitation for €35. Upon hearing this song come out of the speakers, the intro riff, fate was sealed. Another dimension had been discovered.
kick ass track from underrated 80's heavy metal band gotham city. i believe they only had one album. but i have my sword and my chains ready for my enemys.
fucking hell this is so raw i just like the fact there is a band called gotham city, a metal band from sweden. 80s metal magic. must of had only one album. i like them they seem to have been a real tight unit. love this track of warriors and their swords. heavy metal forever. \m/
I'm not actually. In Nocturnal Rites he sounded like the typical generic power metal singer. I never said his vocals on those albums were bad but they certainly aren't anything to heap a whole lot of praise at. His voice sounds considerably more unique and has more character on the Gotham City releases.
Guys, if you like old school heavy metal please check out my band! We just released a new song: Steel Thunder! ruclips.net/video/XnzxcBurJCc/видео.html
paradisebeyond1982 The full demo "The First Stryke" will be released on 1.6.2016. I have the band in my drafts on Metal Archives and I'm going to submit it myself when it's released. Glad you liked our stuff!
True heavy metal.
Very epic. Touches of NWOBHM and traditional metal… calls to mind countrymen Heavy Load 🤟

Bravilor I can absolutely relate to what you have mentioned! Peace out my metal brother.
I have bought the LP in 1985😁
Fukken greattt song
This song is so amazing
La música de los 80' si que era música . Saludos desde Sur América Perú.
One of the Best!
the guitar riff is so cool
swedish are the kings of melodic metal ,
Its Traditional heavy metal,not melodic.
@@overlord1654 im sure hes referring to their melodies they created for this song specifically. Not the genre itself...
@@JoseRodriguez-uw4cm i see....
Pure and obscure heavy metal from Sweden! Hail Gotham City!
*Insert totally clever and original Batman joke or reference here*
I have the album on vinyl, Zackrisson was a good friend and we did military service together when this album was made.

i would say this song is probably the most legendary song in heavy metal history.
one of the most badass songs for sure
Its honestly quite the badass song.
One of the most unknown and underrated bangers for sure.
That lead at 2:47 is pure beauty to my ears... Amazing stuff!
Great Anders voice!..the three albums of Nocturnal with Anders are fantastic ...very heavy speed epic bombastic metal!!..
Kinda proud that I'm from their town.
You should be. I'm proud of a band from my hometown.
fucking hell this is so raw i just like the fact there is a band called gotham city, a metal band from sweden. 80s metal magic. must of had only one album. i like them they seem to have been a real tight unit. love this track of warriors and their swords. heavy metal forever. \m/

💖SWEDEN 💖
YES!!!!
esto es grandioso, lastima que a esta banda no se le dio el reconocimiento que merecia
zackrison's voice fits gotham!
una maravilla
the best metal album of all time? maybe...
if not the best, one of the top for sure
One of the best for its time period. Some guitar parts remind me of Sacred Rite (Hawaii).
idiots
Zackrison sounds quite good here, surprising because I've never been much of a fan of his vocals on Nocturnal Rites early albums.
Celio19891 Not good on nocturnal?
oh you must be DEAF
