Who are here? The vast majority of the fans of classic heavy/power metal, are 40+ as about the age (including me). We are a museum's exhibit even some can't admit it...
Killer metal..I'm 53..been a metal head since 15..1985 ..these guys are flying the flag for the new generation of metal groups...pure Killer no filler.❤
Finally got my CD today. The hype is real. I'm an old metalhead, 62 years young. This is classic METAL! The vocals are best I've ever heard, now I know why. The lead guitarist was also the lead singer on the first album, Burn the night (2019). He sings back up vocals now. At first, I thought they had 2 lead singers, they do! No fillers on this album. This is easily my metal album of the year!! Best true heavy metal in a very, very long time. Sounds much better on CD. Mixed by Olof Wikstrand of Enforcer, thanks man. Be careful, this will blow your ears out!!
@@yahtze3 Thanks again. I'm an old metal head looking for new bands with classic sound. Here's a couple old bands that got over looked by many. Savatage, and Riot. If you never heard them, you are in for a surprise. Both are in my top 10. Riot, Fire Down Under is my most underrated album ever. Savatage, any album before 1994. Jon Oliva died in 1993 (RIP). Most underrated guitar player ever. Him, and his brother Criss (singer) where the best.
Absolutely ! Halford, but also an original mixture of Michael Kiske and Biff Byford in the mid to high range. And the Maiden vibe is clearly there ! With such comparisons... This can only be high quality heavy metal.
Yes, strong European traditional metal vibe, eg, Maiden, Priest, or Scorps. Also, the high vibrato is reminiscent of Ian Gillan in the early days. With so many first rate singers these days, I am losing interest in bands that have crappy vocals.
@@merdarabo And Trial's "Feed the fire" fits easily in your list i think. Fantastic album as well. Maybe the new Sumerlands also. Best releases in the traditonal HM area for 2022.
Any band, on their second crack at a studio album who casually throws the word ELITE into the album name is basically taunting any new listener to poke holes in their work. Don't bother poking - these guys truly are Elite, but don't just take my Word for it. Riot City has already bubbled their way to the top in this genre of music.
Just started listening to it,I'm blown away !!!and just think in just 6 day's on October 7 new Queensryche and The Cult!!!and fall has barely began!!!Metal is Back!!!!
Take the BEST from Queensryche 1st EP, Riot (Thundersteel/Privilege of Power Era), and a little Judas Priest... And You STILL don't have this MASTERPIECE... Queensryche on SPEED... Severed Ties is Music that Q. promised with the THE WARNING-Album, but never reached(they went into something "arti-ficial.."). However...THIS is the Music, I think, many Metal-Hearts are waiting for, for more than 35 Years... EPIC ALBUM! Greetings from Germany!
The Germans know their metal, and you sir nailed it. I just finished listening to the whole album for the first time. Twelve hours ago, I didn't even know this band existed. These guys are as good as it gets, seriously. The sky is way too low of a limit for Riot City.
The Warning is legendary and a milestone. In 10 years from now no one will remember Riot City because they don't play anything original. On the contrary with Queensryche of the first 4 releases that broaden music's horizons
Burn the Night was such a masterpiece I always wondered how anything could surpass it and now here we are with Electric Elite proving it can be done 🤘🏻
The new record is excellent, Jordan Jacobs does a fantastic job on vocals, the instrumentals and playing is brilliant, the music sounds very timeless, love the production that was done by Olof Wikstrand by enforcer, I like to congratulate the guys in riot city for this release, was definitely worth the wait
Dude...DUDE...DUUUUUUDE!!!!!! I was just listening to Riot Citys first album thinking, "I wonder if we'll ever get a second?". Man oh man this is fantastic
А что по музону и звуку означает NWBHM !? хотя ясно -звук типично начала 80-ых и гитары настроены опять в мэйденовском ключе и соло Хэлфордовский вокал Но музон Х.з . В раннемжйденовском ключе
This band is a very special one , that sound , esence , lyric , heavy metal just give to us the chance to listen something like this band , a present from the skies or hell , keep shredding 🤟🤟🤟🤟
scrolling through the old tube just looking for something in the background. This came up in my feed and my entire schedule for the night changed. My only regret is that I didn't find out about it yesterday. Now I'm a whole day behind. It's ok thoug, it'll likely be on repeat for quite some time
When a bands album cover is a cyborg jaguar with laser beams shooting out of its eyes you just know its going to be good
Riot City, Traveler, Eternal Champion, Venator, Visigoth, Ambush: thanks for taking me back to those amazing years. The 80s, obviously.
When your drummer’s name is Chad, you’re destined for a huge success
Mixed by Olof Wilkstrand is another big seal of excellence quality.
@@SillyDeal1604 And released by No Remorse Records, another mark of quality
You can tell this is a 2022 album from this comment
@@Pokerfuel LOL 😂
@@Pokerfuel from all the others ,you can tell its 1988
You know it's good when you're singing along to something you've never heard before
Yes
Yepp. Gotta practice those falsetto vocals.
Yeah it’s awesome. I don’t know the words, but man this is pure metal.
lol
@@mrbard1 underrated comment right over here :D
That leopard has a HELL of a voice.
I'm in my late 50's, been listening to Metal since the early 80s, and this album fucking smokes! Best Metal I've heard in DECADES!
Te recomiendo wind of Steel te rompera la cabeza
Excellent album. Riot City is one of those bands that give us hope for Heavy Metal music. Electric elite. ⚡️
What a babe you are...

😎🤘
They should tour globally with Judas Priest, Wasp, Mercyful Fate and RAM!
This is heavy metal's defiance. We wont die. We wont kneel to the passing of time. We re here. We ll be here.
FOREVER!

Amazing! Everything is perfection in this album🤘

Man, what absolutely sick vocals. The definition of POWER.
It's like that guy from agent steel from 85' on alien steroids!
the band "riot" also has this sound( even the new vocalist). this band might even be inspired by them
Gives me a strong Maiden vibe with Halford/Ripper vocals :-) i dig it, hard!!!
Yup, that's what caught my attention of this band 👌🏻
Can hear that yeah.

This is my new favorite band!! Glorious 😁
Im so hyped hyped hyped hyped hyped hyped hyped hyped hyped hyped hyped hyped hyped!!!
Top 5 albums this year, easily!
Yes!! Along with Venator and Evil Invaders!
@@merdarabo

This band keeps getting better as they go. I hear a kind of Queensryche vibe going on and love it!
Master Piece!
This is the power of metal
Ótimo vocalista, primeira música e de cara, o que me chamou mais atenção
Shaman is having trouble getting the berzerkers into a frenzy for the battle. Then he reaches for a Riot City album...
Super excited for this one
Holy shit, this will be THE album of 2022
Drawn in by the kickass retro album cover, staying for the kickass vocal style and excellent backing instrumentals.
Great voice!!!! sounds like Carl Albert!!! LOVE THIS GUY'S VOCALS!
Good point. Carl Albert of Vicious Rumors. I still have them on cd. Thier Welcome To The Ball lp.
I hear a lot of Geoff Tate especially in Paris Nights
Ghost of reality. 🤘🤘🤘🤘
And return of the force is excellent!!!Best quality!
instant classic status !
Great follow up LP creating great discology collection
Thank's Riot city ❤
I''m old metalhead...
Thank's 🤘
Take the BEST from Queensryche 1st EP, Riot (Thundersteel/Privilege of Power Era), and a little Judas Priest...
And You STILL don't have this MASTERPIECE...

Thanks so much; time to listen again!
One of the few bands, who have understood, what NWOTHM really means🤘🤘...hope to see them live in Europe the next Tour!
Was hoping to see them this Saturday in LA with Exciter, but unfortunately I gotta work seven days this week 😢 😫
А что по музону и звуку означает NWBHM !? хотя ясно -звук типично начала 80-ых и гитары настроены опять в мэйденовском ключе и соло Хэлфордовский вокал Но музон Х.з . В раннемжйденовском ключе
Saw them in Lisbon on Monday and now I like them even MORE! /,,/
This is what pleases metal lovers great album of the 21st century
Brilliant album. The vocals are insane!
Metal will never die
