Quality of Original music including song writing and message:
The music has the 80's rock and metal down to a science. The music is not overly original but has taken a fresh approach to the past.

Production Value:
The overall sound of this album is ripped right out of 1985 it almost sounds like a cassette on some songs but it really works for this album. The mix and master are right on the money very well done.

My Opinion:
Existance has really brought back my love for 80's rock and metal with the catchy riffs and guitar fueled attitude. Steel Alive has a very Prog Metal feel at times with influence from bands like Helloween, Malmsteen and Primal fear. I was very taken in with the leads and guitar playing on this album. Steel Alive has a old school feel but there is something very fresh about the arrangements. This really is a album to carry the torch with the new generation of 80's Metal. This is 11 songs of pure genius.

Personal favorites:
Dear Or Alive, Burning Angel

Rate:
8/10
