With
this slab of metal induced fury Jack Frost formally of Savatage
and Seven Witches unleashes his first ever solo album proving
himself as a soldier of all that is heavy metal. With a slew
of friends eager to give a helping hand Raise Your Fist To
Metal includes such contributing artists as Gonzo Sandoval
(Armored Saint), Mike Duda (Wasp), Mike LePond (Symphony X),
and Billy Childs (Britny Fox) to name but just a few. Heavy
on the traditional eighties metal vibe Frost has captured
a overflowing mixture of guitar licks and fist pumping cuts
that seem just a little out of date to say the least. With
tracks like "The Man I Am" and "Fight Fire With Fire" Raise
Your Fist To Metal quickly looses steam falling prey to sounding
so retro that it becomes hard to relate how artists still
keep trying to re-capture a time most have thankfully put
behind them. As a guitarists Jack Frost is a very talented
artist to say the least and Raise Your Fist To Metal showcases
theses obvious well crafted pleasures but at the same time
with a cover of eighties metal rockers Ratt's "Lack Of Communication"
it becomes easy to see how important this solo album really
is, (yea right). If eighties metal is your meal ticket to
musical pleasure the Raise Your Fist To Metal will fulfill
your need to bring you back to a time that most have all but
tried to erase from their memory banks.
