AIR RAID – Point Of Impact

Air Raid is a relatively new band from Sweden, and Point Of Impact is their 2^nd full-length release. The band plays straight-forward Traditional Metal in the vein of Judas Priest, Accept, and Iron Maiden, and seems to have all the tools and components necessary to indeed make their point of impact on the Metal world. Arthur W Andersson is a very capable vocalist while Andreas Johansson’s and Johan Karlsson’s twin guitar attack provides plenty of tasty riffs, licks, and extended musical passages. Point Of Impact only contains 8 tracks, which comprise all of 35 minutes – the album’s only true weakness.
