GARDEN OF HELL

SHADOW KINGDOM RECORDS is proud to present the LONG-awaited debut album of ROBESPIERRE, Garden of Hell. A cult name amongNWOBHM diehards, ROBESPIERRE were actually active during the original NWOBHM movement, recording two demos in 1983 that remainedunreleased or circulated only among close contacts. Those two demos were released in 2011 as the Die You Heathen, Die! compilation,introducing the Liverpool band to a whole new generation lusting for vintage heavy metal sounds. However, ROBESPIERRE never recorded aproper debut album - until now!Indeed sounding like nearly four decades haven't passed, Garden of Hell brims with that musky 'n' musty scent of classic NWOBHM: traditionaland totally METAL songwriting, with hooks piled high and no small amount of grit. And like a few of their original NWOBHM contemporaries,ROBESPIERRE are keen on dipping into doom - like, really DOOMED-OUT doom that plods like tombstones slowly falling over and envelopingthe listener in an ancient haze. Similarly, the band's forward momentum is brisk but never too aggressive, in exchange exuding a rare sense ofclass and allowing the subtle textures of their endless hooks to sparkle in the night.??1.
