The Hand Of Doom
Poisonoise is an odd little record that was the sole release of a
late-70's band by the name of The Hand Of Doom.
The band name might imply a Sabbathy affair, but no, this is much
closer to the early sounds of the NWOBHM, which makes sense as it was
released in 1979, just as that movement was getting off the ground.
So you've got tinny, buzzy guitars, a lot of youthful aggression, and a
style that sometimes borders on punk, sometimes straight hard rock,
and the rest hinting at that darker tones of the best of the NWOBHM
(another reviewer noted
Crysys,
another non-NWOBHM band from this time period, as a soundalike).
The original vinyl release numbered only 500 copies and so is quite the
collector's item, but once again
Shadow Kingdom
Records has come through, re-releasing the album in 2009.
