LIVE BURIAL/Forced Back to Life (Dunkelheit Production) Some very
solid and heart pounding death metal here. Some punishing riffs that are both
catchy, memorable and some blistering speed to go with them. Death metal vocals
from heel that sound great to my ears as well. This also doesn’t sound like
a million other bands and does more than get the job done. Easily one of the
better death metal bands out there these days. Info:

SORCERY/Garden of Bones (Xtreem Music) A wicked slab of catchy as heel death
metal that will have your head banging in no time. Just whirlwind riff and after
whirlwind riff and some awesome guitar sounds to go with it. The speed and intensity
of this just totally rules too. This band has their own sound and the vocals
are a death metal dream too. I love the production on this too and this is easily
worth getting. Info:
http://www.xtreemmusic.com/
WINTERLORE/Winterlore (Self Released) Some decent black metal that doesn’t
sound like ever generic one that has walked the earth. The band doesn’t go a
million miles an hour and their mid paced stuff is very solid. The fast parts
aren’t even a wall of noise and the vocals are solid and don’t sound forced
or stupid. The raw production is very honest and this is a very good black metal
band that is hands down way above a lot of bands. Info:
https://www.facebook.com/winterlore/
COSCRADH?/Coscradh (Invictus Productions) Holy shit this is a 4 song affair
of some crushing death/black metal with such a raw sound I thought it was a
1985 demo ha ha. The speed and intensity and the rawness of this is like holy
shit. Riffs and speed from hell. Vocals from there as well. This doesn’t let
up and will punish and bury you into the ground. The vocals are more on the
black metal side and the music on the death metal side. I need more as 4 songs
was just a taste. Info:
http://www.invictusproductions.net/
CITADEL BESIEGED/Same (Gothic Records) A pure heavy metal treat is what we
have here. They sort of remind me of the band Grim Reaper at times. These guys
play no frills straight ahead no gimmicks heavy metal and the songs are catchy
and the singer has a solid voice and he fits right in with the band too. I also
hear a bit of Ozzy within the music too. I enjoyed this and if you’re a fan
of metal you will too. Info:
https://www.facebook.com/Citadel-Besieged-137510439658345/
FINAL SIGN/Hold High the Flame (Tridroid Records) Music wise this is an awesome
slab of heavy metal, but I am not a fan of the vocals. His voice just didn’t
click with me. The music is catchy as fuck metal with riffs that will have your
head moving. The production is right on the money and some may not mind the
vocals and other than that this rules. Info:
https://www.facebook.com/FinalSignOfficial/
WARPVOMIT/Barbaric Triumph of Evil (Iron Bonehead) A punishing slab of some
unholy death metal that is raw and will pound into your skull and leave you
a bloody mess. The vocals are a pure black metal delight and he sings with such
intensity and feeling that satan would be proud. This will totally blow you
away and I love the speed and feeling this band get on this. Prepare to be taken
to the pits of heel with this band. Info:
http://www.ironbonehead.de
SCOUR/Scour (Housecore) What we have here is 6 tracks of pounding death metal
with band members Philip H. Anselmo (Pantera, Down, Superjoint etc.), John Jarvis
(Pig Destroyer), Derek Engemann (Cattle Decapitation), Chase Fraser (Continuum,
former Animosity, Decrepit Birth), and Jesse Schobel (Strong Intention). This
is fast as fuck death metal with catchy riffs and pounding drums and I love
the riffs and the intensity on this puppy. Phil sounds great on vocals and the
band just pump out crushing tune after crushing tune. The band even mix in a
bit of black metal to its sound and just make for one excellent release. Def
check these guys out. Info:
http://www.thehousecorerecords.com
PROFANATICA/The Curling Flame of Blasphemy (Hells Headbangers) This veteran
band return and what a slab of black metal this is. I love the raw sound this
band gets and Paul’s vocals are so deadly and on the mark. This band so have
their own sound and on this they show it once again. The bass sound is even
unreal. This is prime all out black metal that satan would approve of and is
unlike anything I have heard this year. Hands down the best black metal release
this year. Info:
www.hellsheadbangers.com
DER ROTE MILIAN/Aus der Asche (Self-Released) Typical boring black metal with
those screaming vocals that aren’t even good and are totally annoying. The music
is just pointless and totally generic as well. Not worth your time.
PESIFERE/Hope Misery Death (Eihwaz Recordings) Boring death metal with nothing
catchy about it at all. The songs pretty much suck and the singer lacks any
quality. This was just plain awful.
HELLSWORN/Repulsive Existence (Underground Movement) Oh this is a wicked combo
of Swedish death meets old Pestilence. The razor sharp riffs just will cut through
you like a knife through butter. The pounding drums will explode into your skull
and the speed on this just rules. Fuck if those guitar riffs and sound don’t
rule. This is old school death metal played in a fantastic way. Info:
www.underground-movement.net
SAVE THE LOST BOYS/Temptress (Victory Records) Some awesome cool power pop punk
rock on this. Great hooky tunes with splendid vocals and his voice fits the
music so well. Sort of like Green Day meets the Sex Pistols in spots. My head
was nodding along to every tune on this and finally a punk type of band without
all that jump metal crap and the tough guy vocals. Info:
www.victoryrecords.com
HAMMERSCHMITT/Still On Fire (Massacre Records) This was some decent heavy metal
sort of in the vein of Dio without of course his awesome vocals. That being
said the singer on this not bad by any means though. The music is straight ahead
80’s style metal with no groove or any of that crap. If your into the Dio stuff
you’ll love this as it is right down that alley. Fist banging riffs with denim
jackets and this band are keeping the metal flag nice and high and it is a solid
release. Info:
www.massacre-records.com
PERVERTED CEREMONY/Demo 1 TAPE (Nuclear War Now! Productions) Just a total
bloodbath display of prime time raw black metal that will dull what is left
of your brain. Vocals from hell and music that just is played with such feeling
and passion it is not funny. No 3am whisper vocals and no generic riffs and
songs on this, fuck no this is the real deal of black metal and it is a music
get at all costs. Info:
www.nwnprod.com
NOX (Columbia)/Ancestral Arte Negro 7" EP (Forever Plagued) Some crippling
black metal and this just will rip you apart as the vocals just ruled and the
chainsaw like riffs are killer. There is just so much feeling and passion on
this and as I have said when black metal is done right it can be a devastating
tool of music. The speed and intensity on this is 2nd to none and this is not
just a wall of fast picking noise. They also don’t sound like a million other
bands as well. Let the devastation begin. Info:
www.foreverplaguedrecords.com and https://youtu.be/-HKwz5owyrg (video)
DECAYED |Pt|/The Burning of Heaven (Helldprod Records) This didn’t do much for
me. It sounded like Venom a lot, but the songs just didn’t grab me at all and
by song # 3 I was growing bored. This just didn’t click with me at all. Info:
order@helldprod.com
SODOM/Decision Day (Steamhammer / SPV) Sodom is back with a new release and
it is quite a solid release to boot. The riffs and hooks on this totally crush
and plenty of speed to sink your teeth into as well. Tom’s vocals are great
on here and the songs are also catchy as well. The production is on the money
and you will be playing air drums or air guitar to many of the songs on this
no doubt. This is just quality thrash all the way and no let down on this. Info:
http://www.spv.de/
RUNNING WILD/Rapid Foray (Steamhammer / SPV) Oh this was awful. Limp wristed
tunes that went nowhere fast. The songs were awful and were like a balloon that
had no air in it. The vocals were ok, but the music just ruined it. It is hit
or miss when these older bands release new music and is a win sometimes (see
above) or a lose situation and this is a loss big time. Beyond bad. Info:
http://www.spv.de/
MINDSCAR/What's Beyond the Light (Self-Released) Oh just what we need a groove metal death metal band. Sorry we have way too many already and those electronic drum sounds are a joke too. This is just plain awful and please if you want some real death metal go look elsewhere.
VOID OMNIA/Dying Light (Vendetta Records) Ultra fast and punishing black metal
that hits hard and hits good. Thankfully this isn’t just a wall of noise and
the singer has a great black metal voice and he screams out the vocals like
a man on his last breaths. The production is on the money and even the bass
sound rules. Black metal when done right can be a destructive force and this
is done right. Info:
http://www.vendettarecords.de or http://vendetta-records.bandcamp.com
SAD THEORY/Vérmina Audioclastia Póstuma (Self Released) This
to me was nothing special, sort of a faceless death metal band actually. They
didn’t suck, but were nothing to write home about neither. It’s like a group
of people on a crowded bus and they are just among the people on the bus. The
music is mid paced to faster death metal, but no killer hooks or songs really
won me over on this. The singer was pretty good, but that’s about it. Info:
https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC_QWPk7slhqt9yQLaSUq9cA
WHIPSTRIKER/Only Filth Will Prevail (Unholy Anarchy Recs) Now this is what
the doctor ordered. A complete lay me to waste slab of Venom inspired old school
black metal that beat me into oblivion. Riffs from hell itself and vocals that
would make Cronos proud you better believe it. Riffs that have you headbanging
in seconds I can assure you of that. Production is total old school and it just
rules. This is a fantastic must have release. Info:
http://www.whipstriker.bandcamp.com or http://www.facebook.com/whipstriker
PIT OF CARNAGE/The Rise Of The Fallen King (CDN Records) This is not technical
death metal as all it is, is Cannibal Corpse Jr. and the vocals are a total
joke as is the music. This band should go into a hole and never come out. Shitty,
crappy death metal at its worst. Info:
http://www.cdnrecords.com
ANATA/The Infernal Depths of Hatred (Kaotoxin Records) This originally came
out in 1993 and now is being released on vinyl only by this label. This was
some kick ass death metal in the Morbid Angel vein. Most of the death metal
bands in the 90’s were just faceless with a few exceptions here and there. The
band play fast and furious death metal and the tunes are pretty good and are
better than some of the so called death metal bands these days. This did get
better as I listened to it and the singer has a strong voice and the guitar
riffing and blast beats will easily win you over. Well worth checking out. Info:
http://bit.ly/ANATA_Shop
IRON FIRE/Among the Dead (Crime Records) I would call this a happy metal release
and thanks to Laurent from Snakepit for the term. This is limp wristed rock/metal
with some terrible vocals. I was not into this at all as the songs pretty much
sucked and were limp like a bad date with a girl. Nothing of value on this I
am afraid. Info:
www.crimerecords.no
MARK J. BRENNISER/Turn The Screws (Self Released) This was a thrash metal release
and a not so good one. The double bass drums were too high in the mix and the
singer is pretty bad too as he has no power or emotion while singing the songs.
There is no killer hook or riffs like say Blessed Death of Whiplash just to
name two bands. The songs were just kind of there and just played on and didn’t
do a thing for me. There was no crushing power on this and was just kind of
limp. Info:
http://www.cdbaby.com/cd/markjbrenniser2
DGM/The Passage (Frontiers Music) This is some decent progressive metal, but
the band sounds a ton like Dream Theatre and that hurts them in the long run.
Hell not just the music, but the vocals too and this is like ‘Images and Words”
part 2 no doubt and that is one of my favorite albums, but I don’t need a copycat
band. If you love Dream Theatre this is your band.
WHIPSTRIKER/Seven Inches Of Hell (Folter Records) This is a compilation of
all the bands 7” releases over the years and if your like your metal in the
vein of Motorhead meeting Venom in a back alley, then you’ll love this band.
Just a totally raw, ripping sound with vocals from hell. Those riffs and guitar
sound just shred me in half and I love the intensity and power this band have
and it like a trip back to the good ole days when you hear this. A must have
for any old school fan. Info:
http://www.whipstriker.bandcamp.com
HEXENSLAUGHT/Demo I (Invictus Productions) This is a debut demo of this band
and well it fuckin sucks. The production is so awful it isn’t funny. The singer
ha ha what a joke he is. You can’t even hear him and this seems like it was
done to be so underground like early demo bands. Well it doesn’t work because
you guys have terrible songs and a singer whose voice is so buried in the mix
and I am sorry we are not in 1987 anymore so please try to make something a
bit more worthwhile. Total garbage. Info:
www.invictusproductions.net
MESSINA/Terrortory (Divebomb Records) I have no idea where Divebomb Records
finds these bands but they have another absolute winner here. This band came
out in the early 80s and they play bone crushing thrash metal that had my head
moving in seconds. Oh my god those crunchy real thrash metal riffs owned me
big time. I have not even heard of this band at all back in the day, but I am
sure glad Divebomb found em. The singer has a great voice and this is 2 cds
worth of material! The band used to be called Assassin, but changed their name
for obvious reasons. This is a pure thrash metal fans dream and this is no jump
around wimpy shit neither. This is thrash metal played the right way and that
guitar crunch kills. You get all the bands demos and live stuff and pretty much
2 discs of thrash metal and the band is also back together! I just hope they
don’t play happy metal and keep the style they have on these discs. Divebomb
you blow me away again. Info:
www.divebombrecords.com
RUIN/Spread Plague Hell (Self Released) A total old school pounding death metal
attack. Vocals reminded me of Ross from Immolation at times as the singer growls
out the lyrics like a man possessed. The music is a mix of Autopsy like riffs
and then blasts into hyper speed that had my playing air drums. The thick guitar
sound is totally unholy and this is the way death metal needs to sound not like
a bunch of the other crap that goes by death metal these days. Total early 90’s
sounding death metal and this totally kills and rules trust me. Info:
https://ruindeath.bandcamp.com/
PAGANIZER/On the Outskirts of Hades (Transcending Obscurity Records) Boring
lets sound like Dismember and Entombed clones that I have heard a million times
before. Info:
https://www.facebook.com/transcendingobscurity
MINOTAUR HEAD/Minotaur Head (War Anthem Records) Some mind crushing doom metal
that did not bore me. Vocals that are not just a bunch of noise and actually
his voice fits the music quite well. This would not be out of play on any early
Sabbath record for sure. The songs have catchy riffs and head my head banging
right along with the tunes. Really solid doom metal band here. Info:
www.war-anthem.de
VERBERIS/Vexamen CD/2LP/TAPE (Iron Bonehead) Some decent black metal. The music
was kind of cool, but the vocals didn’t do it for me as I thought they were
weak and uninspiring. Satan wouldn’t like them you can bet on that. The music
is fast rip roaring black metal like in the old days and it rips and shreds.
Check em out. Info:
http://www.ironbonehead.de
MY FUNERAL/Harder Than Life (Via Nocturna) This like that happy gallop like thrash metal with clean vocals that I hate. Not my style of thrash at all and it is pretty much complete garbage.
FETAL AUTOPSY/Backwoods Bloodshed (Meathook Records) Typical low tuned death
metal with low vocals. Sorry while this was ok, it has been to death and then
some and there is nothing of value on this at all. Info:
https://meathookrecords.bandcamp.com/album/fetal-autopsy-backwoods-bloodshed
DEATHCULT/Beasts of Faith (Invictus Productions) Now this is death metal played
the right way. Thick, pulverizing, catchy riffs that forced my neck into submission.
Speed and intensity to match and vocals from hell. The production is great too
and everything just flows perfectly on this. One of the best death metal releases
of the year no doubt and this will put a hurt on you I assure you. Info:
www.invictusproductions.net
ABOMINANT/Napalm Reign (Deathgasm) I never even knew this band was still around
and lo and behold this band releases a new release and it is a solid piece of
fast and fury death metal that will please any death metal fan. Vicious vocals
that as sung like a man on his last breaths and the music is pulsating and fast
and has tons of catchy riffs to boot. This is death metal the way it was meant
to be played and no groove or any stupid stuff with this band. No violins or
clean vocals or any of that garbage. This kicks ass. Info:
http://www.deathgasm.com
COSCRATH/Coscradh (Invictus Productions) Raw pounding black metal that totally
will rip your heart out. This just has that wicked old school sound and this
will leave you breathless and punish you into submission. The fast pounding
music will totally own you and the vocals just floored me as they fit the music
perfectly too. The sound this bands get totally rules as well as they just great
a mood that any real fan of black metal will love. Forget the wimps and weak
mind bands this is the real deal. Info:
www.invictusproductions.net
KYY/Beyond Flesh - Beyond Matter - Beyond Death (Saturnal) Boring and awful
black metal that about put me to sleep. This was terrible with nothing good
about it at all. Info:
http://www.saturnalrecords.com
AGGRESSIVE MUTILATOR/Monster Decay (Carnal Records) 4 tracks of some old school
death metal that was pleasing to my ears. Riffs that will have your head banging
and vocals that are the way death metal should sound. I like the older, almost
demo sounding production too. Easily one of the better death metal bands around
these days. Info:
www.carnalrecords.com
CRUCIFIED MORTALS/Psalms of the Dead Choir (Hells Headbangers) This band is
back and what a massive incredible release it is. Bone crushing riffs and vocals
to die for fill the airwaves as this plays on. Vocals sort of remind me of King
from Deceased, which is not nearly a bad thing. The music is a like a combo
of thrash and death metal and it is just so damn catchy it is not funny. The
band also have their own sound and trust me this will easily have you smiling
from the 1st note to the last. Total destruction my friends. You can sample
a track below too. Info:
http://crucified-mortals.bandcamp.com/album/psalms-of-the-dead-choir
WREAK/The Pursuit Of Peace Through Excessive Violence (Self Release) This wasn’t
bad, but I was not a fan of the screeching vocals as my ears liked the more
growly death metal vocals. The music leaned more in the thrash vein and had
some solid riffing and the production was good on this too. The band doesn’t
sound like a million other bands as well, which helps them as well. Overall
I give this a horns up. Info:
www.wreak.bandcamp.com
HOLLOWAY/The Feeble Hearts Of Man (Self Released) This reminded me of Dream
Theatre at times, which in my book isn’t a bad thing. Solid, heavy riffing with
some great vocals. The songs are catchy and unlike a bunch of other progressive
bands they songs are catchy and don’t go over my head. The production is good
and I am surprised a label has not snatched these guys up. Info:
www.hollowayband.com
HALUN/Via Nex Via Dolere Via Tenebrae (Sky Panacea Enterprise) Some weird death
metal that took a few listens to grasp and get into. The band aren’t just let’s
blast a million miles an hour type of band. The band set a mood within their
music and it is almost doom like at times and the keyboard parts worked with
me. Now I didn’t like the female singing, but this is an older release and there
have been some member changes from what I understand. This is different and
will take a few listens to get into so give em a listen and see if you like.
Info:
www.facebook.com/halun666 or www.youtube.com/flistraescula
DEGENERATE/2016 Demo (Self Released) This to me was below average thrash metal
with songs that weren’t catchy and have a lot of that dancy happy thrash sound.
The tunes just played on and I wasn’t excited about any of this at all. Nothing
made me want to bang my head or play air guitar. Maybe next time. Info:
Band.degenerate@gmail.com
HERMAN MARTINEZ/Solopsi Rad 10 (Self Released) This is some really cool moody,
haunting music. Now it is not underground metal, but wow what a mood this guy
sets with his music and especially the guitar sound. His voice isn’t bad neither.
It is hard to describe it is sort of like a spaced out Pink Floyd if you can
believe that. Some very spacey music on this and very cool moody music that
I enjoyed too. Info:
Misterh3321@gmail.com
ENDLESS VOID/Apparitions (Self Released) James is back with another release
and this is better than the last one I got. His vocals are good and the music
is just chock full of chunky almost thrash like riffs. The production is good
and this is just all and out solid no frills heavy metal with no groove crap
or tough guy vocals. If you enjoy metal here ya go. Info:
www.crazeartjames@yahoo.com
AEPHANEMER/Memento Mori (Primeval Records) Wow this was a really cool band.
When I saw melodic death metal I wasn’t expecting much, but this was a solid
release. Cool tunes with some nice singing and a wicked guitar sound and they
also don’t sound like a million other bands which I liked a lot. You will be
nodding to the tunes in no time and yes they are more in the melodic vein, but
who cares at least they aren’t some generic death metal band. Very surprising
and very good release by this band. Info:
www.primeevalrecords.fr/epk/aephanemer_eng.rar
IAN TOOMEY/Masters Of Light (Treble Three) This is the guitar player of Bitches
Sin and wow what a fuckin rock/metal release this is. From the 1st note to the
last you will have that fist up in the air I assure you. This is just plain
ass kickin rock n roll the way it used to sound back in the 80’s and now it
is sounding that way in 2016. Bands these days have all that crappy groove or
happy riffing in their music and this doesn’t and I know it wouldn’t and this
sure does not disappoint. The production from Chris Tsangarides is right on
the money and the vocals are perfect like a tight pair of pants and if you like
classic rock n roll and by that I mean real classic rock n roll this is a music
have. Info:
www.iantoomey.com and www.bitchessin.co.uk
KAUZ OF AFFLICTION/Soultaker (Self Released) The songs on this just kinda dragged
and didn’t do a thing for me. There was no killer riffs or anything that would
make me want to go crazy or just basically even do anything. They just plodded
along with no direction or meaning. Nothing excited me on this disc I am afraid.
Info:
www.facebook.com/kauzofaffliction
BRUTALLY DECEASED/Satanic Corpse CD (Doomentia) While this is well played death
metal it sounds like a million other bands I have heard over the past 25 years
and bored me song # 2. Just another sound like Entombed band. Info:
www.doomentia.com
Vorvan/Once Love Was Lost (WOOAAARGH/Darkened Days) Typical jump metal with
the tough guy vocals. Total garbage.
BLACK WITCHERY/Evil Shall Prevail (Nuclear War Now! Productions) This has got
this band’s early stuff on it, like there 1997 and 98 demos, a split LP, and
some other goodies. Now for black metal this is one of the best bands I have
heard over the years. To me when you play black metal a lot of it is about feeling
and mood and this band has both. There is nothing generic about them at all
and even with these early recordings I can sense and hear it. Just bone crushing
and raw as fuck black metal that hits hard and hits fast. The riffing and speed
is off the charts and satan seems to be spewing out the sounds on the mic. This
is one black metal band that has slayed me over the years and if you’re a fan
check this out you’ll love it. Info:
www.nwnprod.com
DARKCRYPT/Delirious Excursion (Transcending Obscurity) I found nothing of value
on this. The songs just plodded along and the songs were not catchy and the
singer was terrible and he was an awful attempt of trying to be a death metal
singer. The songs were weak and no power to them at all. Info:
www.tometal.com
PETER GRUSEL UND DIE UNHEIMLICHEN/Peter Grusel und die Unheimlichen (Kernkraftritter
Records) More garbage thrash metal with a hint of death metal. You get all kinds
of happy riffs and awful vocals to boot. Avoid.
WITCHTRAP/Trap the Witch (Hells Headbangers) Ah now here we go, a wicked slab
of early sounding thrash metal that totally ruled. This band reminded me of
Razor and early Kreator at times and also throw in some Motorhead at times.
Riffs that will have your head and neck moving or air guitar big time. Christ
I thought I was back in 1985 again ha ha. This is a great release and well worth
checking out and bang thy head motherfuckers. Info:
www.hellsheadbangers.com
LECTERN/Precept of Delator (Via Nocturna) I loved the music on this as it was
classic balls to the ball death metal with fast moving riffs and I loved the
drummer as he smashes and bashes with speed. The vocals weren’t so great and
I was not a fan of the different kind of vocal styles as he goes sort of low
in spots and then in others he goes for that lower than low stuff. I mean he
wasn’t that bad and the music is unholy on this and totally rips and crushes
big time. I bet some won’t mind the vocals neither.
SCORTHRED/Echoes of Dismemberment (Unspeakable Axe Records) While this isn’t
original by any means (think death’s leprosy release) this totally kicked my
ass. Bone crushing riffs and intense speed and catchy tunes to boot. Vocals
that weren’t super low and were sung with feeling and conviction and this band
plays death metal the way it should be. No outside influences, just straight
down the middle go for the throat death metal that does go for the throat and
will rip your skull to pieces. Perfect production and everything sounds perfect
and this is the perfect soundtrack to a horror film. Info:
http://unspeakableaxerecords.com
HERE STANDS A HERO/Hollow Hearts (Self Released) I hated this. Melodic death
metal with almost happy riffs and semi tough guy vocals. No crushing riffs or
speed at all or anything basically that had me wanting to stand up and shout
(hi dio). The tunes were flat as a pancake and I fount nothing on this of value.
OVLIVION/Cyclogenesis (Divebomb Records) God when I got this 2 cd set in the
mail I felt like a kid in a candy store. I used to write to this band way back
in the day and even wrote a few reviews about them in my paper zine. I had no
idea they had 6 demos though and Divebomb has put them all together in an unholy
package. Oblivion was a crushing NJ thrash band and played old school thrash
no far removed from bands like Overkill and Whiplash to name a few. There are
3 demos on disc # 1 are all 3 demos are hard hitting thrash with tons of wicked
riffing that will have you neck moving if you dig the sound of 80’s thrash trust
me. Now we move onto cd # 2 and this has the bands first 3 demos and all I have
to say is how this band didn’t get signed back in the day is a mystery to me.
Now look not every song on 35 lovely piece of work is a ten out of 10, but this
band delivered all an out pure thrash metal that would have snapped necks back
in the day if they had been signed. This band never strayed away from their
thrash metal sounds over the course of these 6 demos and never got mote melodic
or strayed down the path of Metallica and other bands of that nature. Highly
recommended and check em out for sure. Info:
