The British-NWoBHM stalwarts (or at least melodic rockers?) Are from Praying Mantis back with a special limited edition EP to mark the 30th anniversary of the first full-length “Tell Me No Lies”. On this EP are 5 re-mastered classic tracks, with the line-up (Chris Troy / bass & vocals, Tino Troy / Guitars & vocals, Andy Burgess / Guitars, Benjy Reid / Drums, Mike Freeland / vocals).

All songs are from the beginning of the band’s career. From the debut album “Tell Me No Lies” are “Children of the Earth,” “Lovers to he Grave” and “Panic in the Streets” and the “Metal for Muthas” compilation, the song “Captured City” and “Praying Mantis ” are included on the same disc on “Metalmorphosis” . This album is also suitable to make a picture of the band, if you do not know PRAYING MANTIS, you should.

PRAYING MANTIS fans and all fans of good melodic rock music should not go without this EP. Old strong songs in a fresh modern look.
