| I saw an old thread regarding this band in the RIP section, but I got this CD for my birthday yesterday and I think it's awesome. Anyone else a fan of this band?
Plus this video for the title track is great. It's so bad, so old school, I love it. Check it out.

| I'm a fan in the sense that it's on my want-list and I'll have it eventually. I like what I've seen & heard. Just haven't bought the album yet. Maybe after the holidays. _________________ A legend in posting since February 1st, 2007

| I've been meaning to get it for months. Absolutely awesome, hopefully, their debut album will be just as good as their EP. |

| It's a really good ep. If you guys dig this band you need to check out Holy Grail. Some of the members left White Wizzard to start Holy Grail. |

| They're too wimpy for my taste. I like my heavy metal raw an' dirty. Otherwise I'd rather listen to some AOR. |

| The members that are in the band, did they record the EP, or are they recording the album only, and it was the sacked members who recorded the EP? Also, are the two EPs the same just switched around a bit, i.e. a national and then international release or do they contain different members again? |

Yeah, the EP was recorded by the original line-up. All of the members except for one have been replaced. The new line-up recorded the first full length. The new tunes that they've posted on their myspace page sound great too. The sacked members of the band went on to form a band called Holy Grail which are actually a pretty good band too. |

Yeah, I like it a lot. I'm really looking forward to the first full length scheduled for release next year. Classic Rock magazine said "the first album you gotta buy in the New Year is White Wizzard’s amazingly brilliant Over The Top..."
If the songs on their myspace page are any indication it should be a very good album. |

Are they the band that supposedly hacked their official website? And i'll have a listen to some of the new tracks, thanks. Might pre-order if it's good. Also, any idea what the differences are between the single and 2 disc editions of the new album? It seems that it has an extra two tracks. It's the same price so I'll probably just go for the 2 disc. Just seems a bit of a waste for just two tracks. |

| So waitaminute? Lemme see if I got this straight. High Speed GTO is just an ep? And they have a full album called Over the Top in the works, but with different members? Who went and who stayed? And the former members have a new band Holy Grail. Whew!! That's allot to digest. _________________ A legend in posting since February 1st, 2007

| I think the only member remaining from the High Speed GTO EP lineup is the bassist? Anyway, i've preordered the album, so I hope it's good. |

| I listen to the Over the Top preview tracks, and this still doesn't do it for me. Metal like these fellas play should have a sort of rawness to it imo, and this is just too clean sounding. |

| http://www.myspace.com/whitewizzard Scroll down for the Over the Top vid. Can you say Iron Maiden worship. Not like that's a bad thing. |

| The new cd is awesome very old school heavy metal. And so you know Holy Grail and White Wizzard are at words with one another. So there is bad blood between the 2. I have the Holy Grail ep and T-shirt as well although not as strong as White Wizzard is. There also another band that came out of early White Wizzard which is much better but can't think of who it is! Wargod51 |

| Bump! Blabbermouth has an article about them. They've got a new singer and lead guitarist. Will the bassist finally find a group of people who'll work with him for more than 10 minutes?  |
