Raven are one of the veterans of the New Wave Of British Heavy Metal.
There are only a few bands who are still touring with almost the entire original line-up from 1974 to today and can claim that Metallica and Anthrax accompanied their headline tour as support bands.
“Songs like 'Destroy All Monsters', 'Fight', 'Battle € March / Tank Treads (The Blood Runs Red)' or the Bon Scott homage 'Thunder Down Under' are not the last twitch of full sacks, but represent one living legend that still doesn't have enough. The co-founders of Speed and Thrash Metal (yes, Raven can also write that on the flag) give a lot of gas, without letting their songs sink into complete chaos, and still have an anthemic refrain up their sleeves.
