DORO
“BRICKWALL”
Single Review by Iron Mathew
10/10
Doro (born Dorothee Pesch) is a heavy metal artist from Germany, beginning her career fronting the power metal band Warlock. During the early to mid eighties, Warlock released four studio albums, quintessential listening for fans of the burgeoning German power metal scene.
The band split in 1987. with Doro pursuing a career as a solo artist and to date has released 14 studio albums, 2 live albums, numerous singles and E.P.’S and 7 official compilation albums. Hailed as the “Queen of Heavy Metal”, Doro celebrated thirty years as a solo artist in 2016, releasing the ‘Thirty Years Doro – Strong & Proud’ DVD.
Doro, a legend, a pioneer and an inspiration, released ‘Forever Warriors Forever United’ in 2018 – a double album, featuring guest musicians such as Doug Aldrich (Whitesnake, Dio, The Dead Daisies) and former Warlock guitarist Tommy Bolan. Although a double album release, ‘Forever Warriors’ and ‘Forever United’ are available in single album format. 2020 sees Doro writing new material for her next album, due for release sometime in 2021…
…with ‘Brickwall’ the first single to be released. Doro has always been (and always will be) one of my favourite singers, and my all time metal fantasy (insert love emoji here). She is the definition of metal in terms of looks, image and sound. The new single is classic Doro – heavy hitting anthemic metal mixed with power ballad nuances, and (of course) her sultry, sexy and husky voice…
Overall, a thumping teaser from the “Queen of Heavy Metal” for her new album – due 2021 – Doro is a legend and an icon, and her journey is far from over.
