Brasileiro em 2019 ouvindo isso pela primeira vez e curtindo !! Curtem

[@infinitycoffe]

Ufa! Mais um BR que tem bom gosto!

Os senhores não estão sozinhos.

[@PortugueseMACPOW]

E eu sou tuga e adoro Steele!

[@mrinkk7010]

I've got the 3 original albums on vinyl. Loved these guys growing up!!

[@user-ny5vp9be8v]

I don't understand how that this album is shit on. This album is heavy fucking metal perfection with riffs that kick you in the fucking face.

[@thierrylafronde8356]

OLD SCHOOL HARD ROCK FOREVER & EVER !!! Quand la musique est bonne, le feeling coule de source...

[@PortugueseMACPOW]

My favorite band! Everyone I meet who knows Virgin Steele ranks them amongs their favorites, unfortunately that not enough people know about these guys!

[@jake6887]

First two albums are my favorites. There's a guy on KZbin who was ranking the Virgin Steele albums. I turned almost his whole list upside down. I love classic US metal and NWOBHM, power metal not so much

[@mardiluz]

So was the third & the forth & let's not forget the EP " A Cry In the Night "

[@LemmyLawless]

I love heavy metal and of course NWOBHM and 80's metal in general, but I can't stand power metal with fantasy lyrics, it's not for me

[@yannicksamson5136]

VIRGIN STEELE TRES BON GROUPE DE HARD ROCK

[@overlord1654]

Hard n Heavy!

[@johnzofcin7798]

killer guitar killer album

[@mr.d.572]

I bought this on vinyl when it first came out, after hearing "Children Of The Storm" on U.S. Metal Vol.1 from Shrapnel Records. I expected more unique songs like "Children Of The Storm," but was disappointed that the rest was more like second-rate early Judas Priest meets early Riot. I never really listened to this all the way through, and just kind of shelved the album.

[@metalhawk66]

true, but they really progressed on their next albums! you better check them

[@metalhawk66]

@Scott Leoski you better check "Invictus" and "The Marriage of Heaven and Hell" Parts 1 and 2, they are great albums

[@gabi.m.hshshs8913]

Man...its a fucking debut album...what you expect:)))))))? For a debut album this is one of the best in history. Virtuos style mix eith raw heavy metal style

[@mr.d.572]

@@gabi.m.hshshs8913 It's not 'one of the best in history," that's ridiculous. I've been around this music since the mid 70's and have heard 10's of thousands of albums. If you like it, fine, but very few people in metal consider this album to be all that good.

[@johnoneil3737]

Much better than their current stuff--like a different band

[@metalhawk66]

yes better than their current stuff, but way worse than everything they released between 1983 and 1999!! A decent beginning though

[@johnoneil3737]

I like it better than House of Atreus I and II--I've listened to their other stuff on youtube only once or twice, so my opinion is not that firm, but my first impression is that the vocals on this album are the best but that the instrumentation might be better on some other albums like Noble Savage.

[@metalhawk66]

if you are mostly a fan of hard rock stuff, i guess you will enjoy this album way more than epic and symphonic albums like Invictus, House of Atreus etc! But as about the vocals, ohh come on mate, even David himself had admitted that his vocals were very "immature" back then...

[@johnoneil3737]

I am a huge metal fan--I listen from bands ranging from Dio to Uriah Heep to Bathory to Slayer to Alestorm to Venom to King Diamond, and some of them have been called epic, power, or symphonic metal. It's not like I dislike later Virgin Steele--I just felt a certain energy and thrill from this album that I never felt from their other albums. I went through a ten year period where I listened to House of Atreus twice a month, and I always appreciated it but as I became exposed to more and more heavy metal bands I eventually found that Virgin Steele didnt' really give me the energy and thrill that a lot of other metal bands give me

[@metalhawk66]

understood :) how about the Invictus album?

[@norberthegyi2618]

Mercyful Fate?

[@cryzpin]

Pulverizer is just pain in the ass :/

[@terrywestbird9217]

I really think that Jack Star should have stayed in Virgin Steele, instead of going on his own. But everyone wanted to be Eddie Van Halen !!!

[@BarbaricAvatar]

Wow. This is almost as shitty as the stuff the band is releasing nowadays! Their mid-life output is among the best in the genre, it's just bookended with trash.

[@yellow6297]

TRUTH

[@CursedFortune]

How does danger zone suck?

[@LemmyLawless]

Too much better than that stupid power metal and fantasy lyrics...

[@gabi.m.hshshs8913]

Sure...they have influences from Judas, Queen, Iron Maiden, AC⚡DC, etc., but for 82 this is so cool....virtuoso style AAAND IS A FUCKING DEBUT ALBUM:))))....WHAT DO YOU EXPECT?

[@madcinder257]

all of the things I want in an album cover armor, muscles, swords, boobs, dragon, and a nature background [edit] and a gosh darn space ship

[@robertstephan3011]

This first VS album is a metal classic! Epic songs, monster guitar solo's by Jack Starr!

[@RobertWeingher]

They became better since the second album and onward, their best albums are from the nineties to the first ten years of the 21 century, the last great album came out in 2010, i love also their latest album from 2018, as a debut album it was good enough, when one is listening to this album and then to their masterpieces he'll realise that they turned to be the best american power metal band of all times, thanks for sharing.

[@leonscoretzka801]

read the reviews on metal archives and was not expecting much. This blew me away. Great album with fantastic solos. Metal Archives is a joke and should not be taken seriously

[@agentstanley29]

Wow an American metal band with a released album (not a demo) in 1982. Not many of those bands, other than Pentagram, Blue Öyster Cult, and Riot.

[@Elfo_dei_boschi]

First time listening to this album (I started with noble savage) very good musicians. Easy listening kickass album

[@RS-xq7ku]

old school

[@catholicneurologits]

Maybe it's beacuse of new recording technology, the sound compressors, but nowadays it's impossible hear guitars raw, fire and metal like these. This is the true metal screaming guitar!

[@giorgio1943]

Catholic Neurologist damnation of “ sampling “. But imagine listening to classical music before and after EQAUL TEMPERAMENT. It was basically the same effect

[@Andre-yq7ce]

It's impossible hear guitars even in new stuff from Virgin Steele. DeFeis turned his song into a pile full of overdubs and digital tracking records of bass, drums and even guitars.

[@HPLovethrash]

You know it was loud as hell in that studio room too. I wish we had modern style HD documentaries about the making of albums like these

[@Snyperwolf91]

Thats true . Many fresh Bands nowadays have way too tame guitar sounds that could have more biting when it has the old sound quality of the 80s . But this could be a skill-problem that guitar-players dont stylisticly go into a melody without sounding so flat or boring .

[@gammanickify]

Yep!.. I still listen to WASP First album and . .. Damn.. and I think... What are this kids doing nowadays!?

[@UliJones]

The title track's verses sound like 'A Light in the Black' by Rainbow.

[@stephenking2435]

Magnifico álbum

[@theotang681]

the first two albums are so so good. if you liked quality metal....this band was it man....the vocals, the riffs and the vocals. so bloody good.

[@Genshinmaniak99]

the guys on tbe cover look like cp-3o's with beards and sixpacks.

[@makmetal8483]

A real and pure heavy metal band!!! Great and inmortal album!!!

[@VelvetViolator]

Didn't they re-record their first 3 records a few years ago ? I hope that this is the REAL debut album.

[@user-ju7tb9tq3m]

This is definitely not the rerecording.

[@infinitycoffe]

I love Virgin Steele

[@infinitycoffe]

Muito bom.

[@caveman385]

That transition from Pulveriser to Living in Sin is so not smooth or seemless like Eruption into You Really Got Me 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@hugoabreu5]

Início ultra cru da banda - inclusive na produção. Excesso de gritinhos dispensáveis em David Defeis... Maioria da músicas apenas razoáveis - "Children Of The Storm" salva-se. Inclusive (muito bem) regravada em 2001, reaparecendo no ano seguinte no álbum THE BOOK OF BURNING. "Dead End Kids" também é boa. Esse primeiro deles não curto muito, quando estavam ainda em busca de rumo... Mas o tempo ratificou a capacidade da banda à frente, felizmente.

[@MarcoPolo82]

O Guardians Of The Flame é bem melhor.

This album is really kool, Dead End Kids is awesome! Its gotta a proper groove the album too! Not just a ten a penny Power Metal album about slaying beasts, it has a street feel to it. If this is such a terrible debut then i can only imagime what a good debut is! For a first attempt of a slab, i don't think many would be dissapointed if this was their bands first output! Better band than Manilla Road thats for sure!

Esse play consegue ser pior do q os atuais deles pqp... ô bandinha intragavel

[@brunoduarte9542]

Intragavel mas bem que tu veio aqui ouvir né, kcte?

[@hugoabreu5]

O problema não é a banda - mas essa estréia é meio irregular. Mesmo assim cozinha e guitarra cabulosos aí; no bom sentido. Bem tocados e cheio de sentimento, em vários momentos.

[@RMarchiori]

@@brunoduarte9542 Eu nao sei e nao me interessa como vc age, mas pra mim, bagagem de som é ouvir ate coisas que nao gosta, pra opinar com propriedade. Ate pq, nao é um disco que eu nao conheça, mas é comum eu fazer reaudiçoes pra ver se mudo uma critica ja que vou ouvir em outra epoca e com outra mentalidade. Faço resenhas e gosto de acompanhar o trabalho dos musicos, mesmo em momentos ou bandas que eu nao aprecio tanto. Este é um dos casos. Mas a pergunta afinal... te incomoda? rasga o proprio cu com os dedos.
