Our Take
Our Take
SAMSON's "Bright Lights - The Albums 1979-1981" is a dazzling trip down memory lane for fans of classic heavy metal. The band, fronted by the legendary Bruce Dickinson pre-Iron Maiden, showcases their raw energy and undeniable talent across these three albums.
The first album in the collection, "Survivors," is a powerful debut that sets the tone for what's to come. Tracks like "Vice Versa" and "Hammerhead" are full of blistering guitar solos and Dickinson's trademark wail. It's a headbanger's paradise from start to finish.
Moving on to "Head On," the band shows growth and maturity in their songwriting. Tracks like "Hard Times" and "Take Me to Your Leader" demonstrate a more polished sound while still retaining that gritty edge that fans love. The dual guitar work of Paul Samson and Pete Jupp is on full display here, weaving intricate melodies throughout each song.
Finally, "Shock Tactics" sees the band reaching new heights with anthems like "Riding with the Angels" and "Earth Mother." Dickinson's vocals soar above the thunderous drums and pounding bass, creating a sonic landscape that is both epic and unforgettable.
Overall, "Bright Lights - The Albums 1979-1981" is a must-have collection for any metalhead looking to delve into SAMSON's early work. It's a testament to the band's influence on the metal scene and a reminder of why they are considered legends in the genre. So grab your air guitar and get ready to rock out to these timeless classics.
