German Speed Metal never sounded better!
Rock ‘n’ Rolf and his crew were quite productive in the mid 80s, and surely did not mess around to get a second full-length release on the market only some months after the release of the first one.
“Branded and Exiled” was released in 1985 at the time that Speed/Thrash Metal was becoming one hell of a big thing around the globe.
Looking back now this early period of the band was as good, if not better than what they would do later on.
Like its predecessor, “Branded and Exiled” has eight tracks and is kind of short with its 35 minutes of music, but that does not matter as it flows so perfectly that one does not mind at all.
Being the last album before the pirate theme appears with “Under Jolly Roger”, we definitely recommend it to anyone that likes old school 80s heavy/speed metal with a dark and heavy atmosphere.
