Some bands would not have dared to start
recording new material after such massive acclaim the debut album
from Thunderbolt got back in 2002. “Demons & Diamonds” received
fantastic reviews from all over the world. Even one of the largest
Norwegian major news papers said “there is not a better heavy metal
companion than Thunderbolt”.
To top this Thunderbolt wrote 9 new metallic anthems and toured and
rehearsed to become the even better band they wanted to be. Finally,
now they are back with the recording that will become the heavy
metal monster record of 2006. “Love & Destruction” is ready for you,
are you ready for some Love and Destruction?
Since last time around Thunderbolt has toured a lot together with
big acts and artists like King Diamond (5 week European tour), Skew
Siskin, Paul Dianno and Tony Martin, making good friends all over
Europe.
Their fast growing dedicated fan base has been urging for some new
tunes for a long time now. Well here it is. All from the already
classic live anthem “We will survive” to epic “Bad Boys” and sexy
“Sin, Sex and Spandex” this record is filled with joy, classic
riffs, pounding rhythms, and of course Tony Thunder’s god given
voice. So what can you expect putting “Love & Destruction” on your
sound device? Imagine a blend including Kiss, Black Sabbath,
Metallica, Iron Maiden, hardcore-legends Integrity and glam rockers
Cinderella, got it? Well, you’re not even close, but getting there.
Rarely do Heavy Metal bands write as honest and down to earth lyrics
as Thunderbolt presents here. They address personal issues like
death and love, and they reach out to the lost and forgotten souls
of today’s society. They address the juvenile bad boys, reach out to
the lonely, sad and ill fated people of today. Trying to help in the
way they know best, writing and performing good heavy metal.
The lucky listener of “Love & Destruction” will find tasteful, rough
and honest heavy metal on the disc. Thunderbolt reaches out to its
audience through the loudspeakers as well as live on stage.
Thunderbolt says it best themselves from the opening song on “Love &
Destruction”, Heavy Metal Thunder:
“Don’t you try to stop me now cause I’ll be marching on – on and on!
If Death dares to face me I’ll be marching on – on and on!”
