Biography : Metal Law

METAL LAW – A name becomes program (Ref: www.kutten4ever.de)

After METAL LAW had caused furor in the German Metal Underground in 2006 (among others at Protzen Open Air, Headbangers Open Air), now early in 2007 the debut album (CD) is for release at BattleCry Records – a must for every metalhead looking for quality.

Music Magazines on METAL LAW's gig at the Headbangers Open Air:
Rock Hard (Issue 09/06): “ perform very confident and relaxed without that almost senile “true metal pathos”, seen with many a band of this genre. METAL LAW play the classic heavy metal of the early 1980s. Their songs with catching tunes are fun to listen to.
As the band just has signed a deal with BattleCry, we might definitely look forward to the album which is for release by the end of the year.”
Heavy (Issue 09/06): “ convincing !“

METAL LAW has been a successful contestant of the Metal Battle 2006 in Berlin and the undisputed favorite of the audience. Unfortunately the jury was prejudiced against a traditional metal band as a winner of the contest (for reviews see the METAL LAW homepage)

To describe the musical style of METAL LAW you have to refer to classic metal bands like Iron Maiden, Manowar, Judas Priest, as well as Running Wild, at their glorious days, but METAL LAW transform these references into an unique and intoxicating mix. The official album debut „Night of the Wolf“ will clearly prove this. Metal fireworks of power, cool songs, quite a few surprises, and tons of solos and dual leads.

METAL LAW was started in 1997 by Karsten Degling. After some inevitable replacements, mainly because of Karsten's unwillingness to compromise regarding musical style, late in 2002, when Michael Dobbertin joined the band, finally a partner was found, who completely shared Karsten's musical visions. Finally, early in 2005 Ingo Creß and Thommy Parchem, two real metal rockers, joined the band, which is now settled, dedicated to heavy metal, and aimed at success.

METAL LAW unites all essential attributes of a powerful metal outfit:
A charismatic voice far away from the usual falsetto vocals, guitar virtuosity, year long experience in the Hard rock / Heavy metal scene, metallic songs inviting the audience to celebrate and party, and an energetic and electrifying stage performance!
Here ACTION is still considered essential!

Since summer 2004 METAL LAW has been on stage with bands like DESTRUCTION, SODOM, STORMWARRIOR, VIRON, DEBAUCHERY, DOUBLE ACTION or DELIRIUM TREMENS.
