Free Music Review: Anvil delivers the goods!
Hit: 5 Stars
The band Anvil hit my radar via their movie "Anvil: The Story of Anvil!" A very funny documentary about a heavy metal band who after some success in the early 80's fell out of the limelight. 30 years later a fan, and former teenaged roadie for the band who now has Hollywood clout, looks up his old friends and finds they are still plugging away at their dreams of super stardome. He makes this movie and it is very successful.
I fell in love with this movie because it spoke to me on various levels. First it's damn funny, and the principals, Lipps: lead sing/guitarist and Robbo: drums, are really likeable guys. Second, I could relate to their hardships as I played in rock bands for many years and never got beyond bar bands status. After trying for 20 years to make it, I got married, had a family and gave up on my dreams of fame and fotune. I REALLY wanted to show my support for these guys and bought the album they struggled to record and market in the movie.
I bought the record to support the band, but I really enjoy it. There are many classic tracks on it on the par with Judas Priest or Black Sabbath. My favorites are probably "Feed the Greed", "Big Business" and the bonus track "Thumb Hang", but all the tracks are solid. I'm glad they have dropped the raunchyness their lyrics were known for back in the day, it really opens them up for more main stream recognition, without completely taking away their heavy Metal edge. I'm looking into their back catalog of music now, I have 30 years to catch up on.
This Is Thirteen Poster
Official 2009 release of the 13th album from the Canadian Heavy Metal band featuring one bonus track: 'Thumb Hang'. The recording of this album is documented in the critically acclaimed documentary, The Story Of Anvil. Forming in 1982, Anvil released one of the heaviest albums of all time Metal On Metal - influencing some of the biggest names in Rock including Metallica, Slayer and Anthrax. But while those bands went on to sell millions of albums and achieve international fame, Anvil's career took a different path - straight to obscurity. Their 25+ career has led to this album and renewed interest in the band thanks to the overwhelming response to the documentary.Hard Rock & Metal Music CDs
