Midnite Hellion - Kingdom Immortal - Reviewed By BATHORY ́zine ! Check it out here at this link: https://www.bathoryzine.com/2022/03/midnite-hellion-kingdom-immortal-review.html
Today’s review is of American Heavy Metal band Midnite Hellion’s new album.
This release offers some fun Heavy Metal with certain Crossover and Punk influences that displays a carefree and even comical sonority while still maintaining an energetic approach. With short and straightforward songs mixed with longer and almost serious ones, the full-length may be described as a combination of early Iron Maiden with The Toy Dolls and SOD.
If you like fast Bay Area-like power chords and silly lyrics over a Heavy Metal base then you should check it out, but if you’re looking for a serious Metal album that strives towards epic or negative auras then this is not for you. Despite the album being clearly Heavy Metal, it may possibly be better enjoyed by Punk fans. My personal highlights are “H.M.O.” and “Rapscallion”.
I recommend this album to fans of Heavy Metal, Speed Metal and Punk. My rating is of 7,5/10. - BATHORY ́zine

Established in 2011 by drummer Drew Rizzo, Midnite Hellion took shape with the addition of bassist and vocalist Rich Kubik in 2016. Joined by lead guitarist Charles Koegler in June 2019, the band entered Pyramid Sound Studios in Ithaca, NY in August 2019 with producer Alex Perialas ( Anthrax/S.O.D, OverKill, Testament, Joe Bonamassa ).
Recording for Kingdom Immortal was completed in six days, with mixing and mastering taking place in March and May 2021, respectively. The vinyl mastering was cut at Infrasonic Mastering by Daniel Bacigalupi ( Barry Gibb, Dolly Parton, Stray Cats, Willie Nelson ) and manufactured at Third Man Records ( Jack White/The White Stripes ). Their debut album, Condemned To Hell , catapulted Midnite Hellion into the metal markets in 2017.
The album was featured on the coveted “ New Music Mondays ” program on 89.5 FM WSOU . Heavy regional and national touring in support of the album was in order, most notably supporting Otep and The World Over in December 2018 in the Midwest and Mountain regions of the US. Midnite Hellion is currently endorsed by InTune Guitar Picks, Axis Percussion , and Drumlite .
