EXXPLORER – Symphonies Of Steel [Rerelease]

Exxplorer hails from New Jersey, USA — a Traditional Metal band that developed during the early ‘80s.  Though probably never being given the chance they fully deserved at international success, Exxplorer has reunited and Pure Steel Records is rereleasing their acclaimed Symphonies Of Steel from 1984.  The production quality of the album sounds pretty much like a demo, but there are a number of good tracks that resonate like a mix between Iron Maiden (Killers), pre-Hair Metal Dokken (Tooth And Nail), and Classic Hard Rock stalwarts Budgie.   Polished songwriting acumen lacks at times here, but there’s still plenty to enjoy.
