Masterful killer guitar attacks that screams of Malmsteen and Axel Rudi Pel! Hands off my Toy" delivers great production with catchy hooks. High'n Dry launches their musical attack right from the get-go, never looking back. If you are into bands such as AXEL RUDI PEL with a bit of an edge, this is the one for you. HIGH TENSION was founded in the Summer of 1983 in Germany! Gino and Detlef meet up in Malta for the first time, had a few jamming sessions together the following year, whereas Gino moved to Germany in which the first High'n Dry line up was formed after a year playing in clubs in Cologne. The members of the band went their separate ways, but after keeping in touch with Detlef in 1987, Gino returns back to Germany after a few years playing London whereas the second High n Dry line-up was formed with Joe Mizzi on vocals Gino Micallef on bass, Markus Ulrich on drums and Detlef Kowalefski on guitar. After a few gigs, the band started working on the production of "Hands of My Toy" album, which came out in October 1988 through Bellaphone Records. After playing twice in Cologne with Iron Maiden and the Lorely Concert with Meatloaf and Marrilion in Koblenz, High'n Dry toured throughout Germany and France. If you love Def Leppard, Ozzy Osbourne, Cinderella, this album is for you!
