As a band, the London-based APOCALYPSE should need little introduction. They achieved a degree of fame amongst fans of the New Wave Of British Heavy Metal for their 1982 ‘Storm Child’ single which was then followed up three years later by the well-received album The Prophet, although by this time the band had undergone an enforced change of name and were now known as Omega.
Fast-forward over forty years and APOCALYPSE are back with a new album ‘Last Man Standing’. Pretty much the sole work of guitarist / vocalist Steve Grainger, who is indeed the last man standing following the following the deaths of both his brother and drummer Marc and bassist Dave Robertson, this new offering from APOCALYPSE – or APOCALYPSE.nwobhm. as Steve rebranded the band – follows on seamlessly from Abandon Hope which was released by High Roller Records in 2010.
‘Last Man Standing’ combines some new material written by Steve with older songs which in their original form date back to his and his brother’s first band, Phaze, but which still have the vibe and drive of APOCALYPSE. With contributions from both Marc and Dave, and lyrical references to some of the band’s past material, ‘Last Man Standing’ is the latest instalment in the Apocalypse story, and is a worthy addition to the band’s catalogue.
