David Shankle’s most notable claim to fame was with Manowar, and since departing he’s kept in circulation via the David Shankle Group. DSG’s third release is entitled Still A Warrior, and featured on the microphone is Damien Thorne’s Warren Halvarson. Overall, Still A Warrior contains quality US-based Power Metal with plenty of signature Shankle guitar work. However, the production quality is deplorable – musically, the album comes through sounding muddy and unorganized. Also, Halvarson may have recorded his vocal tracks at a separate studio, because he comes through noticeably more clearly, which adds to the overall confusion inherent within this album.

    Dan is a former partner at Metal Express Radio, and also served as a reviewer, photographer and interviewer on occasions. Based out of Indianapolis, USA he was first turned on to Hard Rock music in the mid-1970s when he purchased Deep Purple's Machine Head as his first album. He was immediately enthralled with the powerful guitar sound and pronounced drumbeat, and had to get more! His collection quickly expanded to include as many of Heavy Rock bands of the time that he could get his hands on, such as Ted Nugent, Judas Priest, and Black Sabbath, to name just a few.
