Formed in 2002, Colombia’s REVENGE have been keeping it true – and consistently – for a very long time now. While their home country continues to have a true metal renaissance, REVENGE have been there from the very beginning, pioneering the resurgence of classic metal sounds over the course of their sizable discography and steady touring across South America and even the United States. In fact, in 2018, REVENGE became the only South American band invited to the 70,000 Tons of Metal cruise festival. Like clockwork, every couple years do REVENGE return to the full-length front, and they now present a worldwide edition of Night Danger. The Colombians’ tenth(!) album to date, Night Danger rips and races with class and craft – the kind that REVENGE have been forging in steel for time eternal. On the whole, Night Danger is a speed metal record, but one imbued with a prominent sense of classic heavy metal. Put another way, think of how bands like Judas Priest, Riot, and Manowar – and then Running Wild, Helloween, and Razor right after – took traditional metal and juiced it up just enough to make it truly METAL and sometimes speed metal, and there in that rarefied territory will you find REVENGE. Of course, if you want galloping, adrenaline-pumping TRUE speed metal, Night Danger is about as paradigmatic as it comes: completely classic and also contemporary. This is the ultimate REVENGE!
