Kill Devil Hill - Kill Devil Hill

Kill Devil HillKill Devil HillSPV RecordsKILL DEVIL HILL is the new band featuring Vinny Appice(DIO, BLACK SABBATH) and Rex Brown(PANTERA, DOWN). Their debut has just dropped and anyone that is a fan of either one of those guys won't be disappointed. From the opening riff of "War Machine" to the wash of feedback that ends "Revenge" , it's 12 songs worth of deep, heavy grooves and slammin' riffs. Not all are uptempo though. They take a detour here and there with such tracks as the moody "Gates of Hell" and the radio-ready "Mysterious Ways"  but it all works together perfectly. This is simply a great debut from a band that clearly wants to make great heavy music without giving in to trends and this is a rare quality.  Kill Devil Hill is a must have for any metal or hard rock fan.
