Unstoppable Force is the 2nd full album of American speed metal band Agent Steel. Released in 1987, these guys rock out pretty heavy riffs which speed along, sounding either awkward or amazing.
Brazilian vocalist John Cyriis (currently Max Havlock though neither are his true name..though I think Cyriis is) was clearly influenced by Halford and Dickinson as he tries his utmost to copy them on tracks like "The Rager", he tends to get a really high note in every few words which at the best is quirky and at the worst a little annoying. Personally, I prefer the faster, heavier tracks like the title track "Unstoppable Force".. and better yet the amazing "Indestructive". "The Day at Guyana" has a brutal and straight to the point sound like early Metallica despite spanning that point over a track of 6-7 minutes!
Cyriis disappeared after this album and now remains out of the limelight with his philosophical thoughts about not wanting to be on this planet but elsewhere, this remains a top quality enjoyable album with some outstanding guitar solos. It's hard to make out all the lyrics as Cyriis sings incredibly rapidly almost seemingly trying to keep up with Juan Garcia's top class guitar playing!
Advantages: Superb guitar playing and awesome spacey sound Disadvantages: Poor production
have just been influenced heavily by the cover!
This is a quality debut album but it's not as good as UnstoppableForce which is better produced.
