This is a Great album from Victory, relised in 1989 with Fernando De Luca on vocals, their new singer. He has a great voice that fits this band just great. Pure glam Rock like it was back in the 80`s. With great guitar riffs, synth and harmonic clear sound. The album is full of energy, powerfull and good produced. Great songs on this record is: More and more, power strikes the earth, on the loose, so they run, standing on the edge of the time, but the hole album is great. Easy listening, straight 80`s rock`n roll.

3.0 out of 5 stars So So, April 26, 2011

This review is from: Culture Killed the Native (Audio Cassette)

This is the final cassette I burned to CD by Victory. I had bought a slew of cassettes by them out of a discount bin in Oklahoma in the early 90's and this was the final one I burned. As it turned out, it was also the one I liked the least. With a different singer, it veers far closer to hair metal than the others did.

There are some nice guitar parts sprinkled throughout the rather generic songs, but overall, the album came off with a generic pop hair metal feel to it. I can't remember much of anything about it except a couple of lightning fast guitar licks somewhere near the end of the second side. The vocals are partially what did it in. They sound too much like every other hair band that was out at the time. Then there is the songs themselves. In a way, it seems that they all sound about the same. Maybe I'm being too harsh, but I didn't hear enough variety between them to tell them apart.

I would have figured by this time in their career that they would have gained their chops a bit better and would have refined their sound, but apparently what happened was that they went too far and refined the creativity right out of their music. Sorry guys. This could have been much better. Still three stars for effort. I think culture killed their sound.
