Bloodsport – Lethal Tender (2021)

Flashback to when you were a young metalhead in the 80’s.  If you’re anything like me, when you were between the ages of 10 and 15, the only thing you liked as much as metal, was wearing out VHS tapes of action movies.  

We all had our favourite action heroes too.For me, the band was Iron Maiden, and the action hero was Van Damme – the muscles from Brussels.

Fast forward to 2021, and I haven’t grown up at all.Why should I?

I still love cheesy action movies, and I still love metal, so imagine my excitement when an email lands in my inbox touting a Van Damme themed metal band from Canada.You have my attention, but honestly, my expectations are low…

It’s only 2 tracks spanning 13 minutes, so it’s worth a shot right?

9 seconds in to the first track, “Lethal Tender”, I honestly have an ear to ear…
