CobraKill |
||||||
CobraKill are a heavy metal/hard rock band from Germany formed in 2020, releasing their self titled demo later that same year. | ||||||
Influenced by the sleaze metal and rock evolution of the late eighties and early nineties, CobraKill come storming out of Germany with their debut release - the three song demo 'CobraKill'. Creating a sound that takes all the great elements from iconic bands such as Motley Crue, WASP, Alice Cooper and Kiss, CobraKill (in their own words) have "hairspray, make-up, leather and rivets" - and I for one am not gonna disagree. | ||||||
The first of the three songs on offer 'Arena Of Sin', is an energetic "foot on the monitor" gallop. Full of pace and power, 'Arena Of Sin' is a meld of WASP and Motley Crue, a gathering of metal and rock just like the old days. 'CobraKill' is a heavier hitter than 'Arena Of Sin', bringing a touch of seventies Kiss into the mix. CobraKill are blending metal and rock nuances associated with the styles of sleaze and glam very well. | ||||||
At just eleven minutes in length, and with only three songs on offer, CobraKill have had to make an immediate and head turning impact - and I reckon they've got it just right. If you're into the whole seventies/eighties glam, eighties/nineties sleaze, then this demo is right up your street. Bringing their debut effort to a close is the more melodic 'Amber Eyes', a hard rocking mid tempo and very upbeat romp. And dare I say it, just a little dash of classic AOR too! | ||||||
Overall, a heavy hitting three song assault of old school glam/sleaze metal and rock, CobraKill have impressed with their debut release. | ||||||
