![]() High energy metal in Maiden, Scorpions and Priest style.Does the name of the Belgian metal band Ostrogoth ring a bell' In 1984 they released their surprisingly impressive Maiden- and Priest-esque debut album 'Ecstasy and Danger'after delivering the very promising EP 'Full Moon's Eyes' (which contained one of my top ten cult metal tracks ever: the incredible title song). Review Summary: Maybe underrated, but highly recommended debut album by Belgian Ostrogoth. Like most of their songs, they also has catchy verses and choruses, special thanks to singer 'Marc de Brauwer' for his amazing voice and performance on these ones too! Other definitive highlights of this album are 'Scream Out' and 'Stormbringer', both features mid to fast-paced beats and melodic guitar parts. However, it's only a small part of the album because when you get to listen to the self-titled track 'Ecstasy and Danger', you get a blast of energy in the ears with its evil vibe on it. I'm actually not a big fan of this track, even though the musicianship is brilliant, there's nothing memorable unfortunately, thus making me skipping that one ahead when I am listening to the record. One thing for sure, having such track on the album is fantastic, especially when there are already so much variety on the album, just to say the least.Among all the songs on this album, one of them is an instrumental called 'Lord of Thunder'. Being the highlight of the album, it also has that famous epic part in the middle of the track that sounds smooth and melodic as hell. This song really define the sound of Ostrogoth in overall, it has that catchy lyrics that follow the beat so flawlessly. ![]()
