Ik had er onlangs nog zo eentje: muziek die ik in de jaren tachtig sterk vond en volgde, maar waar ik nu helemaal niet meer wakker van lig. Natuurlijk gaat het er nog wel vlotjes in wanneer ik het bij toeval iets langer dan 10 seconden beluister. Deze in ware NWOBHM-stijl bv., incluis de twin guitar attack zoals ooit Priest en Maiden die cultiveerden. Mooi meegenomen is dat White-Gluz - naast een boeiende, charismatische verschijning te zijn - over een klok van een stem beschikt, zowel clean als unclean.
