WRETCH – Warriors

Wretch is a band from the Rock ‘n’ Roll Hall Of Fame home: Cleveland, Ohio, USA. Wretch’s origins date back into the mid-‘80s, although a veritable unknown outside of their native land. Their current release entitled Warriors is a Epic/Power Metal journey featuring some impressive dual guitar action in the vein especially of Iron Maiden and Helloween. Overall, Warriors starts off strong with the first few tracks, but the band misses the mark on both the vocal presentation and the associated melodies. The end result is many songs sound too similar to one another, making for a floundering, ho-hum release.
