Defiatory – Apokalyps (Black Lion Records)

This is the third album by the 7-year-old quintet from Umeå, and the first with the current line-up. Musically they are fast & heavy thrash with gruff vocals rather than clean, with the occasional growl added for good measure. At… Continue Reading →

Sadistic Ritual – The Enigma, Boundless (Prosthetic Records)

Aside from the latest album by Canadian thrashers Tymo, ‘The Art Of A Maniac’, I have not heard a more incendiary thrash release in 2022, though I’m sure there are some. Even the latest Evil Invaders is a damp squib… Continue Reading →

Invocator – Excursion Demise / Weave The Apocalypse (Hammerheart)

Hammerheart have done a great job re-issuing the early back catalogue of Danish technical Thrash metal band Invocator. The band’s debut Excursion Demise was originally released in 1991. I always found this release to be at the tipping point of… Continue Reading →

Scorn -Winds Of Torment (Great Dane)

Scorn are a band from France who formed rather recently (2021) and seem to be wasting no time in getting into gear and putting their work out there. Primarily described as a Thrash metal act with some death metal influences,… Continue Reading →

Disquiet – Instigate To Annihilate (Soulseller Records)

This was a thoroughly enjoyable album. It’s the third full length album by the Dutch quintet who formed 22 years ago. Blending thrash and melodic death metal very effectively, the album has plenty of intensely rapid passages combined with flowing… Continue Reading →

The Damnnation – Way Of Perdition (Soulseller Records)

After listening to this debut album a couple times, I found the vocals very reminiscent of Arch Enemy’s ‘Khaos Legions’. It’s at this point I decided to read the band bio. Formed 3 years ago in São Paulo, Brazil, and… Continue Reading →

Tyrannus – Unslayable (S/R)

Always very nice when you get an actual physical item through. You get a proper look at the art and in this case a slightly pink/purple on black Lovecraftian monstrosity. Sponsored by the Lottery no less. I always knew there… Continue Reading →

Vulcano – Stone Orange (Emanzipation Productions)

Long standing and enduring thrash veterans Vulcano have been around for around four decades and released eleven albums, plus a smattering of lives and EPs, previous to this latest effort. Whilst probably never attaining the same status as their compatriots… Continue Reading →

Dead Head – Slave Driver (Hammerheart Records)

Hitting the world in 1989, Netherlands wrecking crew Dead Head have consistently delivered aggressive, classic thrash metal. Starting life in an era that dropped the big names, they’ve continued to fly the flag for extreme music and with “Slave Driver”,… Continue Reading →

Flayed Disciple – A Hell In Living Flesh (Bethlam Records)

Flayed Disciple are back, and boy, it has been way too long !! so, to ease themselves in ‘gently’ they have unleashed a five track EP on us to truly exhibit their intentions on how they plan to forge their… Continue Reading →

Crisix – Full HD (Listenable)

Opening up the release, “The Many Licit Paths” has a brief atmospheric opening loaded with exotic flair which quickly transitions into full on riffing. Powerful with its impact, the tumultuous wall of riffs and commanding vocal snarls hits like a… Continue Reading →

BillyBio – Leaders And Liars (AFM Records)

I may have mentioned it 4 years ago when I reviewed Billy Graziadei’s debut album that other than a couple Biohazard songs that I have on compilations, I’ve never really listened to an album of theirs. So sure, owing to… Continue Reading →
