Blood red eagle / Aggroknuckle - Aussie - Japanese friendship
Blood Red Eagle are featured with 6 songs, originally recorded around 2005 - 2007, but the band members are making a comeback with different projects and some of the previously unreleased material is coming out now.
Excellent heavy Aussie rock with some nordic influences and gruff vocals. Aggroknuckle aren't exactly a new band either and have been a constant fixture on the Japanese scene.
They have that heavy sound with touches of metal that a lot of the nationalist Japanese bands have, the so-called SSS sound.
This split album project took shape in the fall of 2012, when members of Aggroknuckle, Blood Red Eagle and the label met at a festival in Japan. The booklet contains photos from that festival, and also includes lyrics. Great artwork.
