COLOMBIA
By Jorge Páez
Esteban Mejia from the Speed Heavy Metal band Revenge (Medellín City)
sent me a demo in advance for its new album Metal Warriors,
which will be played in the radio show ‘Música sin Fronteras’.
Tell us about the begining of Revenge...
Revenge began to compose the metal with the old roots
keeping the aggressive feeling of the speed metal.
Tell us something about the album Metal Warriors...
The lyrics of METAL WARRIORS, speak about the feeling of metal.
There are 500 copies of the album, it was recorded at Vasco Productions
and released by the label DARK MUSCI PROD.
In Colombia have played Sodom, Morbid Angel, Hypocrisy, Behemoth etc. etc.
I wonder why the 80's Heavy Metal bands don't play here?
I guess that the actual time is making new stiles in the metal
and the bands are playing without the essence of the 80's.
So much persons are saying that Heavy Metal died
what do you answer to that commentary?
The pure metal haven't died, for that reason Revenge is here
to the vengeance of the mistakes done to 80's Metal.
Which are the best metal bands today?
RUNNING WILD, VIPER, SCANNER, RAGE, ACCEPT, etc.
Do you prefer the english heavy metal (Judas Priest, Saxon,
Iron Maiden, Holocaust, Diamond Head) or the teutonic heavy metal
(Grave Digger, Running Wild, Accept, Rage, Sinner)?
Revenge is influenced totally by the teutonic heavy metal which is more aggressive
Tell us the guitar players which you like...

Tell us the reason to purchase the album debut of Revenge ‘Metal Warriors’?

with the force and the feeling of our time.
