Riot is the epitome of class, longevity and integrity: the New Yorkers play their high-class heavy metal with full fervour and have not let numerous strokes of fate - such as the death of guitarist Mark Reale, since when, out of respect, they are operating as Riot V - get them down. A lot of time has passed since the debut "Rock City" (1977), but Riot V is still around and now delights the fans with an absolute masterpiece. More than five years after "Armor Of Light" - which saw the band achieving chart success in numerous European countries for the first time ever - Riot V presents "Mean Streets". From the ferocious opener "Hail To The Warriors" to the hypnotic hymn "Feel The Fire" and the up-tempo hit "High Noon", up to the energetic title track, the band pulls out all the stops. Fast-paced, lively, melodic and heavy, "Mean Streets" is the full service for every heavy metal fan!
