Grave Digger – Clash Of The Gods

Releasedate: 31-08-2012; Label: Napalm Records
By: Sabine van Gameren

After more than 30 years of existence the Heavy Metal formation Grave Digger the band has a status, an extended discography and line-up changes. This year the band is ready for their 15th!!! full length release. “Clash Of The Gods” is out now.

One way to keep your band interested for your fans and the new generation is by going with the time, some changes and innovation. Grave Digger is a band that have brought these into their sound through the years and maybe not every album is that much different from the other, they find a way to keep it interesting each time. The first track on this release comes with German lyrics. Not expected that from the start, but furthermore the band remains with the English language. Of course the bands trademarks are more than upfront again. The catchiness of the refrains, the drive to sing along. Plenty of great guitar solo’s to be found in the release as well, never lasting too long for the track. Sure, after many years of experience you could hardly imagine an album to turn out any less than they brought it, but not all of the bands releases got received that great in the past years. With “Clash Of The Gods” they don’t have to worry about that, Grave Digger keeps going!
