A Rocktopia / Fireworks Magazine album review by Dave Cockett: As the NWOBHM began to falter and lose momentum in the early 80's, the once Brit dominated hard rockin' airwaves became increasingly congested with ever more glamorous foreign imports – particularly from North America. As history shows us, the likes of Def Leppard and Iron Maiden were the last home-grown acts to make it big before the shutters slammed shut and left those that followed becalmed in little more than a parochial backwater. Yet, whilst it's true to say that it was the start of more than a decade of US domination, you could still find the odd local nugget if only you knew where to look ... London based melodic rockers Airrace being one band with particular promise. Read the full review on Rocktopia.
