AMG Review of Sacred Talisman

Steve Huey
All Music Guide

The Sacred Talisman offers more classic early-'80s power metal grooves and catchy, memorable tunes worthy of the top British metal outfits of yesteryear. Nocturnal Rites may not be innovators, but their enthusiasm for what they do is infectious and well worth the time of any metal fan who thinks that memorable guitar riffs went out with the '80s.
