BRAT – Sword And Stone ’84 [Retrospect Records remaster +2] HQ

As requested, here’s the remastered reissue of Americans BRAT music, which for years has been traded hand to hand by fans. “Sword And Stone” is a collection of all the recorded material by this five-piece orthodox metal band with twin guitars hailing from US Florida, formed in ’81.
BRAT was active in the Florida metal scene along with SAVATAGE and CRIMSON GLORY. While Savatage and Crimson Glory found global stardom, unfortunately Brat somehow got lost in the shuffle. Brat recorded many songs and at the time – first half of the ’80s – and was expected to release an album, but it never came to fruition.
Fortunately Retrospect Records presents the entire back catalog of songs recorded in 1984 by BRAT under the title “Sword And Stone”, plus 2 bonus from other sessions. This is pure early 80s U.S. Melodic Metal, raw at places, polished at others.
