Contents Introduction Holy Moses, led by the original thrash queen Sabina Klassen, releases their final album. This album, which continues the same high-speed pace as in the 80s, is a masterpiece worthy of a grand finale! Disc 2, which includes versions featuring guest appearances by Bobby Ellsworth (Overkill), Tom Angelripper (Sodom), Gelle (Tankard), Jens Kidman (Mesuggah), and Diva Satanica (Nervosa), is also a must-listen! Nowadays, it's commonplace for women to take the lead in extreme metal. However, that wasn't the case in the 80s. Extreme metal bands with female members, let alone female vocalists, were not very common. Amidst this, the German band Holy Moses was one of the first thrash metal bands to feature a female vocalist. Formed in 1980, the following year, Sabina Klassen, who remains the face of the band today, joined. After releasing numerous demos, they made their album debut in 1986 with "Queen of Siam." Their second album, "Finished with the Dogs," released the following year in 1987, is revered as a masterpiece in thrash metal history. After releasing five more albums, they disbanded in 1994. They reformed in 2000 and released their comeback album, "Disorder of the Order," in 2002. They consistently released works until "Redefined Mayhem" in 2014, but then releases became infrequent. And now, after nine years, Holy Moses has finally released a new album. Titled "Invisible Queen," this album is another explosion of Holy Moses' thrash metal. Speed ??is their motto. From beginning to end, it's just fast. Of course, speed isn't their only selling point. Hooky and moderately technical riffs shine throughout, and the vocals of the original thrash queen, Sabina, are dirtier than ever. However, it's not all good news. Sabina, who turns 60 this year, has decided to retire. This album is planned to be Holy Moses' final work. "Invisible Queen" is truly a fitting finale. It's an essential album for Holy Moses fans, German thrash, and indeed all thrash fans! Disc 2, which includes versions with guest appearances from Bobby Ellsworth (Overkill), Tom Angelripper (Sodom), Gelle (Tankad), Jens Kidman (Mesuggah), and Diva Satanica (Nervosa), is also a must-listen!
