In the primordial soup called heavy metal, a sickness is undulating the evil spirits that lie below to wake. Preparing to darkness to rise and crash through the very gates of Hell. A thundering force akin to a roar of one thousand deranged beasts. As the decadent vigilantly search through the murky depths, a dark champion has come clearly into the view. CONQUEST. The vision and the glory of true school metal has finally come haunt us all. It is an inescapable point that in the form of “No Boundaries” Conquest has shown nothing but sheer metal genius. To hold any song on the album above another would be an atrocity to any metal fan. Every song is a brilliant composition, roaring with fantastic musicianship. Bass player Robert Lloyd and drummer Tim Fleetwood keep the pace furious with impeccable timing. Guitarist Mike Crook pours gas on the collective fire with hard and gritty distortion. His masterful screaming solos will definitely make your horns rise. Then there is lead vocalist and guitarist Derrick Brumley. He is possibly one of the finest voices in metal. His razor sharp annunciation in combination with a voice that exudes passion is undeniable. The fantastic vocals are only further complimented with the band’s thought provoking lyrics. Without speaking above or below their audience, Conquest delivers their message and brandishes their opinions. These four horsemen are coming and their bringing the apocalypse with them. Seeing into your dark souls for fuel to feed the ever-growing darkness, there is no limitation to what could be acquired. Prepare and understand that there is nothing you can do but give in or be crushed by Conquest.
