Line Up
 Paladin come from Atlanta GA and they were formed in 2015 . This is their debut  2017 Demo studio . So, let me tell you my impressions from their new Demo ….
I think it is obvious to everyone that Thrashmaniac that worships the 80’s. Almost every day a new band pops out that is inspired by the 80’s Thrash  Metal sound and if you search further you will find bands that copy the style of a specific era of a well known band. I admit that this is fun to listen to, but most of the time they only achieve to make me listen again to the original bands and material. On the other hand there are bands that draw influence from the 80’s, but they craft a sound of their own or at least they try to do so. I think that  Paladinbelongs among these bands.
I have already listened to the new demo of the band and I have to say that in their new work they stay true toThrash Metal sound which they love as fans too. Musically the band moves somewhere between the old Thrash Metal sound and the melodic Speed metal genre. In their sound you will find a strong Heavy Metal element and sometimes a Power Metal feeling filtered though the their own sound. Without reminding something in specific, I am sure that an experienced listener will find some similarities with such bands like Megadeth , Metal Church and Annihilator Â
The New demo is an two full of catchy Power / Thrash metal songs that are old school and yet sound fresh and dynamic. It is a release that you will listen to again and again, especially if you are into the old school sound. They deserve your attention, Im sure !!
