The well-known voices of the KING are there, backed by real heavy metal. \u201cSenicide\u201d has more of MERCYFUL FATE in its veins, and is augmented by a chanting voice. \u201cSleep and Death\u201d may well be more KING than the Dane has produced in many a year lately. \u201cSnow Witch\u201d may sport an arch typical title but is remarkably featureless. Most is forgotten as \u201cEight of Swords\u201d hit my ear phones. The refrain really lingers and for a change HUNTRESS is more metal than KING or MERCYFUL. The groovy aggressiveness of \u201cAradia\u201d is also very satisfying, I somehow came to think of HOLY MOSES when hearing the fab riff. The rest of the album never really reaches the heights of the first six tracks, thus rendering the album out of my best of 2012 list. But if HUNTRESS gets the time to conceive and record a follow-up, with some handy record label guidance, I think we\u00b4re on to something big here!<\/p>\n<p>Track List<br \/>\nSpell Eater<br \/>\nSenicide<br \/>\nSleep and Death<br \/>\nSnow Witch<br \/>\nEight of Swords<br \/>\nAradia<br \/>\nNight Rape<br \/>\nChildren<br \/>\nTerror<br \/>\nThe Tower<\/p>\n<p>www.napalmrecords.com www.myspace.com\/huntresskills   <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Napalm\/Sound Pollution Californias newcomers HUNTRESS are contenders to the envious spot of the newcomer of 2012.
