High Spirits Another Night CD  (Slipcase, 2024, High Roller Records)

Another Night is the debut full-length studio album from the American New Wave of Traditional Heavy Metal band High Spirits, originally released in 2011 and widely regarded as one of the defining releases of the modern traditional metal revival. Led by multi-instrumentalist and songwriter Chris Black (also known for his work with Dawnbringer), High Spirits emerged from Chicago with a clear mission: to revive the triumphant, melodic spirit of classic heavy metal while injecting it with youthful energy and contemporary sharpness.

Drawing heavily from the legacy of bands such as early Iron Maiden, Dio-era Rainbow, Judas Priest, and Thin Lizzy, Another Night delivers soaring vocals, vibrant twin-guitar melodies, and anthemic songwriting rooted firmly in the traditions of the late 1970s and early 1980s. Songs like “Another Night,” “Endless Night,” and “High Spirits” quickly established the band as a leading force within the NWOTHM movement, praised for their sense of melody, uplifting atmosphere, and pure metal conviction rather than retro imitation.

This High Roller Records CD reissue from 2024 presents Another Night in a premium slipcase edition with a revised master, offering improved clarity and punch while preserving the album’s original warmth and analogue feel. High Roller’s collector-focused approach ensures this edition is ideal for fans of authentic traditional heavy metal and serious physical media collectors alike.

A landmark release in the modern resurgence of classic heavy metal, Another Night stands as essential listening for fans of NWOTHM, melodic heavy metal, and timeless metal songwriting. Whether rediscovering the album or experiencing it for the first time, this reissue captures the excitement and optimism that helped reignite traditional heavy metal for a new generation.
