It was probably fate that this record came into being after 10 years. But it is not only perseverance that characterizes STARSTRIKE - that is Matthias "Wauxl" Pfaller, Martin Buchmann and Andi Gmeinwieser - but above all professionalism and creativity. And that they know their trade, they have proven for years in well-known and successful bands like MASS, Grand Sermon, The Cascades, Ravenryde or Rock`n`Rodeo. On their debut "Legacy or Destiny" the three impressively show how they imagine Heavy Metal: Diverse and progressive, but always melodic and powerful. In doing so, they take up the legacy of German metal bands of the first hour such as Helloween, Rage and Accept: From double-bass rockers to hymns and ballads, you'll find everything on this record to make your metal heart beat faster. "Legacy or Destiny" reflects the themes of our time: money, power, self-destruction, religion and hope - do we resign ourselves to our legacy or do we take our destiny into our own hands? The three guys from STARSTRIKE have decided: Legacy Or Destiny! Leadvocals, Guitar: Matthias Wauxl Pfaller (MASS, Ex-Ravenryde) Leadguitar, Bass, Vocals: Martin Buchmann (Ex-Grand Sermon, Ex Rock`n`Rodeo) Drums, Vocals: Andreas Gmeinwieser (MASS, Ex-Ravenryde, Ex-Cascades)
