Black Ice - Hot 'n' Heavy (1986)

Nothin' smokin' about this EP from straight laced Californian metallers Black Ice, who like to surf the Dokken wave with elements of blues driven metal. Competent enough and deserves a whisper of a mention as it's pretty obscure and at times when the band chant "Heavy Metal Warriors" on the track, you guessed it, 'Heavy Metal Warriors', as a metal head teenager I would've probably fallen for it. Sincere no doubt but it was never going nowhere but it's always a buzz to dig this sort of thing out of the coffin.

5.5/10
