│║ Description : ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ From Spain comes the Heavy Metal quintet HITTEN ║ │
│║ and their debut album ôFirst Strike with the ║ │
│║ Devilö. Each year the band has released some ║ │
│║ form of product since its 2011 inception, ║ │
│║ gradually moving up the ranks from demo to ║ │
│║ self-financed EP and a single prior to this ║ │
│║ release û so there should be no question that ║ │
│║ they are ready to gain a wider fan base through ║ │
│║ their sound. ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ Taking one look at their band logo, it becomes ║ │
│║ obvious that acts like JUDAS PRIEST and IRON ║ │
│║ MAIDEN factor heavily into the riffing, harmony, ║ │
│║ and arrangements of HITTEN. You can imagine the ║ │
│║ high octane material like ôEvil Powerö and ║ │
│║ ôPunished by Speedö coming straight out of the ║ │
│║ 80Æs scene, the latter more of a mixture of ║ │
│║ NWOBHM meets EXCITER, although the vocal choices ║ │
│║ of Aitor Navarro are very clear and melodic, in ║ │
│║ line with Bruce Dickinson or a slightly more ║ │
│║ serene Olof Wikstrand (ENFORCER). ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ The twin guitar team of Dani ArgilΘs and Dani ║ │
│║ certainly know the tenets of tradeoffs, dual ║ │
│║ harmonies, and intertwining the riffs and lead ║ │
│║ breaks in such a way to build up the songÆs ║ │
│║ pacing. The final two songs showcases all facets ║ │
│║ of their technique: fiery and flashy on ôStand & ║ │
│║ Fightö and more epic and emotive during the 6 ║ │
│║ minute plus closer ôNightmares Come Trueö. 8 ║ │
│║ songs in almost 40 minutes that should charge up ║ │
│║ the audiences and earn the band prime opening ║ │
│║ slots for the new and old traditional heavy ║ │
│║ metal brigade. ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ I do hope that on the follow up the band ║ │
│║ consider a different cover artist though, ║ │
│║ because as detailed as the front cover may be, ║ │
│║ the quality screams amateur a la WOLF and their ║ │
│║ first self-titled album. IÆd hate for people to ║ │
│║ judge the output from the outside, instead of ║ │
│║ digging deeper into the music and release this ║ │
│║ is high quality stuff. ║ │
