On November 14th internationally, Dying Victims Productions will release Speedclaw's highly anticipated debut album, Stardust, on CD and vinyl LP formats. And today, Deaf Forever magazine's website reveals the new track "Fly High." Hear Speedclaw's "Fly High" in its entirety exclusively HERE.
Speedclaw are a Croatian metal band that have been delivering raw heavy metal since 2015. First came the aptly titled Iron Speed EP in 2016, and the Beast in the Mist EP followed the next year. Between the two short-lengths, Speedclaw wielded exuberant-yet-reverent steel of early ‘80s vintage, an era when the NWOBHM was in full steam and speed metal was in its nascent days. The uptick in professionalism and POWER from one EP to the next certainly heightened expectations for what the Croatians could do on a full-length.
At last here, Stardust is that full-length, and Speedclaw show everything – and MORE – they’re capable of. Taking all the electricity and excitement of those two EPs and amplifying ‘em with a certain starpower, Stardust is indeed aptly titled. That aforementioned uptick in power & professionalism play out to its fullest extent across this eight-song / 33-minute stick of dynamite, all whilst retaining Speedclaw’s early edge. Stardust is actually a semi-conceptual album: four of the eight tracks are thematically connected, forming a narrative, while the remaining songs stand independently. The conceptual “Night Side” features four songs that tell a story inspired by the band’s life on the road and everything that comes with it.
