BREATHLESS' sadly only album from 1985 is pure metal magic unhinged, unselfconscious, and unlike most of their Belgian contemporaries. Neither strictly traditional metal nor speed metal nor hard rock nor latent NWOBHM, Breathless was a blender of all the tastes of the time, and it's indeed-breathless rush was sublime in it's sheer energy and electricity.
