Their ambitious goal is to reignite the flames of heavy metal's glory days from the '80s and conquer the world with their unique music. Drawing inspiration from the likes of these legendary bands, the quintet, featuring Nick Adams on vocals, Randy White on lead guitar, Tommy Gun on rhythm guitar, Crippler Ramirez on bass, and Toby Ventura on drums, not only captures the essence of the '80s but embodies it in both sound and appearance.CobraKill's rise to prominence has been marked by electrifying performances and meticulously crafted songs. Fans attending their shows often describe the experience as magical, with many likening the atmosphere to witnessing the young Mötley Crüe commanding the stage.The band's debut album, 'Cobratör,' released in 2022, achieved remarkable success, selling out its physical format within weeks—a testament to the band's rapid ascent in the music scene.CobraKill's music seamlessly blends metal, rock, sleaze, and glam, creating a sonic landscape that not only pays homage to the glory days of hair metal in the '80s but also asserts the enduring vitality of rock n' roll in 2024.

Album:
Is that a poster of a new Predator ot Texas Chainsaw Massacre movie re-make? Nope, it’s ”Cobratör”, the debut album from Germany’s COBRAKILL, a 5-piece playing metal, hard rock and sleaze in the spirit from the ‘80s. The band check off all the retro boxes from the album art with its comic book style, long hair, denim and leather, and of course the music.It’s fun stuff driven by dirty riffs and a gritty vocalist with a touch of sleaze similar to Taime Downe from Faster Pussycat, or even Danny from Crazy Lixx, a fierce, hard hitting 30+ minutes of scorching melodic metal and hard rock ranging from Motley Crue to W.A.S.P.Since the scorching opener ‘Silver Fist’ the band are firing on all cylinders, working everyone into a frenzy. Even more abrasive than the opener, ‘Deathstalker’ is also heavier, and features all the hallmarks of traditional US metal. But it’s the vocals of singer Nick that have a raspy grit that I’ve come to expect from the sleaze and glam metal genre, mainly from growing up listening to Skid Row, WASP, Faster Pussycat, and Motley.Title track builds, slower pace less brash and more melodic and focused chorus. “Electrifier” has the catchiest riff, arrangement, solo, and hook. It’s direct and to the point.Same with “Bring It, Sugar” – the band equally adept at performing both metal and hard rock numbers. Also, the transition between the two styles is seamless, effortless, and as natural as breathing.There’s a lot Whammy bar action in “Lavender Haze Gypsy”; third song in the spirit of ‘80s glam metal has that purity of Mötley Crüe’s Too Fast For Love.Staying in the more melodic hard rock territory, the album is brought to a close with a power ballad – ‘We’ve Just Begun’, a sparkling lighters in the air moment, full of hair metal atmosphere.On ”Cobratör” CobraKill brings back that ’80s spirit combining heavy, metallic 1984 US melodic metal with gammy hard rock and some sleaze. A highly infectious sense of fun too, all overly attractive retro stuff.
