3/5 ·
1967/ 1976
"Mad" is a correct title for a Raven release. First because Athletic Rock sounds like something fast, almost punk, similar to thrash but more carefree. And in this sense if you listen to Raven this is sure good. In general today a band as Raven being part of Power Metal but in 80's Raven was good as NWoBHM.

In this case 5 songs of pure madness, shot in our ears without the certainty that this musical proposal indicating something serious. But I admire songs as "Do Or Die" or "Speed Of The Reflex".

In conclusion "Mad" is not a pure piece of madness applied to music, but the extreme attempt to be personal, trying to apply R'n'R to Heavy Metal.
