This is a rough early demo that I am told is a Christian metal demo (but I don’t know exactly what they are singing). Google tells me that the title of the demo translates to “I’m Going to Fight” and the band name means “Sacred.” Some of the songs translate to “God is With Me” and “Do Not Worry Anymore,” so it seems they are a Christian band. The sound is an early 80s metal sound – kind of like Saint meets Messiah meets Leviticus (with female vocals). And actually, the song writing is great – it’s just a rough tape recording. The band apparently changed names to Shock later and went more in a hard rock direction.
