“the band’s furious stage presence seems on the perpetual cusp of overpowering the cool efficiency of their musicianship -- but this never happens.”

"Powerwalker" review- (8.5/10) Gnarled, crisp, almost cranky and garage epic way. RED BLADE tackle these attributes in their approach to reduced-transmuted heavy metal, nibbling at the all-new metallic Altmodetum too dainty to his brother-energy punk rock genre... Nevertheless, it has been playing with some confidence. In the best manner Neologic traditional metal bands you throw colorful NWOBHM leads, tight heavy / speed metal riffs and a spicy serving of sweat and dry production on the record. The four tracks on the EP make continuous mood with a high amount of catchy melodies, but also full of seeds headbanging material mentioned along with the supply of energy and the songs anchoring hooks. This is not a virtuoso or excessively marked by double guitar race, but none of the songs blunted by the not-quite-traditional arrangement and reinterpreting older-serving metal elements.

“The best way to describe their music is that draws on the best parts of punk and metal and makes it their own. There are tracing of traditional metal bands such as Iron Maiden in the galloping rhythms, along with fuzzed out punkish riffs, the occasional ripping solo as well as catchy hooks and memorable choruses. In a way, they are like Nate Newton of Converge’s other band Doomriders, albeit more New-Wave-Of-British-Heavy-Metal inspired creation. The intent is the same though. They both want to create music people can have fun and headbang to, in the most simplest of ways. It’s just catchy riffs, great vocals and ripping solos. It’s a celebration of metal.”
