Ross The Boss
New Metal Leader

The long-awaited album from former Manowar Ross guitarist The Boss is a real, “masculine” return to the 80s with straightforward and uncompromising heavy metal of the time, obligatory solo parts, slightly hysterical high-pitched vocals and an invariable declaration of covenants, or ... sorry, deeds heavy, such as: saber-rattling, rescuing a beautiful maiden from the clutches of a terrible monster, receiving a well-deserved payment from an inconsolable parent in hard cash and caressing a beauty on a cold night on the skins of the fierce animals obtained in battle and further in a circle. With music it is as simple as with actions - from the first chords it is clear what will happen next during those 4-5 minutes allotted to each of the songs; in places similar to early Manowar, but more on Metal Church or Dio, and in rock and roll moments on Twisted Sister (“May the Gods Be with You” - as the brightest representative). There are no hits, as well as failures - everything is so smooth, predictable and without frills that it is with this that “New Metal Leader” captivates fans of traditional metal in general, and fans of Manowar in particular, especially those who are fed up with the insipid releases from “the most the loudest band in the world.
