Alcatrazz are determined to make up for lost time, roaring forwards at warp factor 10 to deliver Take No Prisoners, their sixth studio album and the third in three years. Comprising of ten cracking, charismatictracks, with each containingthe uniquefusion ofclassic American rock with the full grain hardrocking attitude of British metal, Take No Prisoners sees Alcatrazz energetically soaring and exploring melodic progression with roadwarrior riffs. Lead single and video ‘Don’t Get MadhellipGet Even’ sees the band collaborating with thelegendary Girlschool in a fullforce, headbanging fistpumper, while ‘Little Viper’ rides a scything guitar into a thunderous,Diolike assault. Theband also show their calmer, more expansive side with the epic ‘Strangers’ , but when analbum finishes at the burn point of ‘Bring On The Rawk’ , there can be no question that Alcatrazz’s collective boot is repeatedly kicking serious assComprised of Doogie White vocals, Joe Stump guitars, Jimmy Waldo keyboards, Gary Shea bass and Larry Paterson drums, and with Giles Lavery and Waldo producing, Take No Prisoners is a loudly, and proudly classic rock album which draws on theAlcatrazz traditions of technically excellent screaming guitars, thunderous rhythm and the sort of vocals and overall aura that evoke prime Dio and Rainbow. And, of course, a primed and fullytuned up Alcatrazz, whose career is fast taking on Benjamin Button proportions.The Take No Prisoners tour should be a lot of fun Alcatrazz is available for home delivery from Vinyl Records London, only £10 +P&P
