One of the bands I always heard mentioned on NWOBHM websites as one of the era's best was Traitors Gate, a band that hailed from Pontypool, Wales.  Starting out as Cyron in 1979, the band then changed their name to Quest, before finally that settling on the name Traitors Gate.  Cool name, but seriously, there were 2 other NWOBHM bands with the SAME NAME at the same time, an altogether common problem in the NWOBHM scene.  Seriously, how did the head bangers of the time know which band they were going to see on any particular night?   You might have loved Traitors Gate from Pontypool, but when you got to the show it was Traitors Gate from Weston-Super-Mare, who you didn't care for!  Just crazy!  (and this happened with A TON of bands at the time)  Rant aside, this Traitors Gate was very good, justifying their inclusion amongst the movement's best, despite their output being minimal.  The three tracks that make up the Devil Takes The High Road comprise 11:05 minutes of pure NWOBHM perfection, simply put.  Great vocals (often compared to Carl Sentance of Persian Risk), plus tasty guitar work and song writing by Andy Turner, plus a cool cover as well (The devil riding a unicorn?  how cool!) and you have the complete package.  The final 3 tracks, recorded when the band was called Quest, are nearly as good, maybe a slight notch below in quality, but still worthy to be included on this re-release CD.
