This Means War! - 1987 - Star Song

Here you can tell that now Petra getting into that popular 80's hard rocks sound. The first 3 songs on the album "This Means War!", "He Came, He Saw, He Conquered", and "Get on Your Knees and Fight like a Man" are really good and they rock pretty good too. They really put you into PUMPED mode and you just want to sing along with it! This album also features some funky synthesizer on "I am Available". The last two songs on remind you of how good they will get in the next album. This album is borderline hard rock. But this album is one of my favorite albums because of how awesome the tunes and John's voice went together. The producer's did a great job making this album. If you love 80's rock, you'll get some more of that deja-vu stuff I was talking about. WHAT A GREAT ALBUM, BUY ASAP if you don't already have it.

RECOMMEND TO: People who like Hard Rock and Classic Rock like Led Zeppelin, Aerosmith, or Degarmo and Key.
