Val Santos continues his journey through the sounds of metal's golden age with lyric videos from 1986 , his first solo album, this time featuring the track "Savage Hearts," a collaboration with Roberto Gutierrez of the band Hollowmind , who is responsible for vocals and co-writing the song alongside Santos.
Released in May by the Wikimetal Music , the album already has lyric videos for "Warriors Of Metal , " "Allied Forces" (a cover of the band Triumph ), and "Cross The Line ," all directed by the celebrated MRossi . The visual work for "Savage Hearts" was done by Jean Santiago .
“I composed this song based on the Japanese band called Loudness ,” says Val, who called upon guitarists João Márcio and Beto Richieri , specialists in the 80s sound, and the master of metal, Edu Simões , to recreate the sound of the band's heyday.
