Album Reviews

‘Titans of Creation’ is a robust mixture of complex guitar work, aggression and above all, it’s the ultimate thrash metal record.

Inculter is a blackened thrash metal band whose aim is to restore the old school metal sound of the early 80’s.

Overkill are still bloodthirsty and they never get old, their music is straightforward topped with tempos and classic thrash metal tunes.

It is affirmative to say that The Quebec lads of Outre Tombe are capable to match the sound of the classic sound of 90’s era, “Necrovortex” is a rudiment record and has this brutish flavor.

Jungle Rot might have found a new effective and systematic way of forming their style, and with this album they sound like a mean machine, and this machine has only one objective is to kill and to destroy!

Is it just a coincidence this record gets released on Friday the 13th? I don’t think so. This album is pure evil.

Denver youngsters Havok bring thrash metal with an old school feel that has a righteous spot between the greats of the genre!

Get ready for a brutal avalanche of humppa!
