1.	Smart Kills (demo) 05:11	lyrics
VERSE 1 Wondering aloud, blowing smoke behind me The deluge falls in sheets With blinking eyes, the moon my only guide Upon the sodden streets PRE CHORUS What does it take to like me? It's gnawing at my brain What does it take, can't somebody tell me? The anger stirs again CHORUS Smart Kills, A way of life Bear the yoke, feel the strife Smart kills Smart Kills, only me Bears this mark; misery Smart Kills VERSE 2 I forge a path, such is the highbrow's lot To walk alone at night Cold-Shouldered, spurned, browbeaten & burnt Knuckles are turning white
2.	Alone in the Oaks (demo) 06:14	lyrics
VERSE 1 'Twas God's will, I was born a disfigured man Tarred as a freak, I turned to a thieving hand Caught, and cast out of town by the village folk Condemned and banished to a life amongst the Oaks VERSE 2 With twisting trees to serve as my only friends If I must die here, I shall first take revenge The humble homesteads, round the old church spire As they sleep, shall they feel the heat of man-made fire
3.	Steamhammer (Unfinished Mono Mix Demo) 06:34	lyrics
VERSE 1 Burning eyes, burning arms Blown-out ears and a blown-out heart Grimacing faces, through the searing steam Born under blows, strained at the seam CHORUS Steamhammer; forged man and me (x2) VERSE 2 Forced overload, the firm ground breaks Foundations shatter and shake Face the heat, of the furnace bright Pull well, pull fast, pull until it's light BRIDGE Steamhammer; created he Whose heart is pounding and nerves are steel When the only way is bitter trials See Hephaestus smile (x2)

about

Armstrong Gun Horley, UK

Harking back to the early 80s New Wave of British Heavy Metal, Armstrong Gun is a powerhouse trio that bring riff-laden songs with catchy melodies. First started in 2018 Horley, Surrey by like-minded friends playing heavy blues material, a line-up change steered the direction of the band to a more focused New Wave of Traditional Heavy Metal sound.
