Check out this week’s picks, which include everything from Black Star Riders classic hard rock to the ultra aggro sounds of trouble makers King 810.

Eddie Trunk’s TMS Pick of The Week:

Black Star Riders The Killer Instinct (Nuclear Blast Records)

Who They Are: Former Thin Lizzy guitarist Scott Gorham’s A-team of hard rock lifers delivering the goods in a way that would make Phil Lynott smile, especially the delivery and commanding stage presence of Belfast-born lead singer Ricky Warwick

What Eddie Said About Them: “An early runner-up for my album of the year. It’s amazing stuff, very much in the spirit of Thin Lizzy. If you’re into straight-up dual guitar hard rock, this is the way to go.”

Don Jamieson’s TMS Pick of The Week:

Visigoth The Revenant King (Metal Blade Records)

Who They Are: Salt Lake City power metal band, whose classic sound and image will appeal to fans of traditional metal eager for tales of ancient battles of yore.

What He Said About Them: “They’re young, they’re hungry, and as you can see, you put on “The Revenant King,” you crank it loud, and you go into battle.
