On their second "Kiss Heaven Goodbye" released in 1978, their main characteristic is the singer which has a unique voice, The record is quite heavy for its time and this is obvious judging from cover and songtitles however don't forget it's still hard rock. There are songs (e.g "Respected man") that contain Sabbath elements, in general these guys were more hard rock oriented. Songs like "Prince Of The Southern Ice" would be right at home on any early NWOBHM album, and that movement was still a year away from taking hold. Like many a band over the years, the breaks didn't go their way and they disbanded. Granmax is indeed one of those gone-but-not-quite-forgotten bands that 70's fans should track down.
