I canÆt believe no oneÆs reviewed White Spirit ║ │ │║ on MA yet. Well, prepare for another DeathRiderDoom NWOBHM ║ │ │║ review, folks. White SpiritÆs claim to fame is that they ║ │ │║ were an early band featuring legendary Iron Maiden staff ║ │ │║ member Yanick Gers. Anyway, this is a phenomenal release ║ │ │║ that has a blues heavy feel and is highlighted by the great ║ │ │║ touches of GersÆ shredding and the keyboards which give it ║ │ │║ a standout sound. ║ │ │║ ║ │ │║ I particularly enjoy the track æGet it RightÆ, that with ║ │ │║ its keyboard æsoloÆ section and energetic, powerful feel is ║ │ │║ a definite highlight. There are touches of acoustic guitar ║ │ │║ and organ-esque stuff in it, with heavy metallish ║ │ │║ crunchiness coming through at the end. What also stands out ║ │ │║ in this one is the engineering; a full, thick and clean ║ │ │║ sound that is perfect for the band's material. The keyboard ║ │ │║ æriffageÆ is very memorable and catchy while the vocals are ║ │ │║ great, soaring, uplifting pieces. ║ │ │║ ║ │ │║ The heavy track æWay of the KingsÆ is another high point ║ │ │║ due in no small part to the heavy and effective æmetalÆ ║ │ │║ opening riffs that are carried through the cutÆs verses. ║ │ │║ The subject matter is pretty familiar with British bands of ║ │ │║ this period. It basically pans out some evil political ║ │ │║ hypocrite-type dude, similar to tracks by Sabbath and ║ │ │║ Motorhead. This one features some productive touches like ║ │ │║ æspaceyÆ sound effects coming into a solo that has a very ║ │ │║ prominent guitar effect over it. ║ │ │║ ║ │ │║ The sound on this album is incredible unique; an excellent ║ │ │║ blending of influences that comes out really well, ║ │ │║ particularly for its incredibly early date of release. ║ │ │║ White Spirit are an excellent NWOBHM act with unparalleled ║ │ │║ uniqueness and a powerful sound that cannot be compared to ║ │ │║ any other. Gers plays excellent guitar throughout this ║ │ │║ NWOBHM great, giving emotion to songs like æWay of the ║ │ │║ KingsÆ and the excellent æNo ReprieveÆ, a no-holds-barred ║ │ │║ rocker with a shitload of energy. ║ │ │║ ║ │ │║ White Spirit is an amazing act that has a powerful sound; ║ │ │║ blues heavy with a focus on melody, yet melody that is ║ │ │║ executed with immense intensity and passion that is not ║ │ │║ often equaled in the genre. Tonnes of keyboards in the ║ │ │║ sound give it distinction and added substance. This is ║ │ │║ their only full-length which is well worth getting. I ║ │ │║ remember being blown away by this one when I first got it ║ │ │║ and you will be too, if you like NWOBHM. ║ │ │║ ║ │ │║ -DeathRiderDoom ║ │ │║ ║ │ │║ ║ │ │╚════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╝ │ │ │ │ │ │ │ │╔═════════════════════╗ │ │║ Release Tracklist ║ │ │╚═════════════════════╩══════════════════════════════════════════ │ │ │ │ 1.
