Legendary German speed-metallers with their latest album mixing the classic speed sound with traditional 80’s parts and modern production. Unexpectedly sounds more “Bay Area Thrash” than “German Speed” (yes, there’s a difference). Special guests on “Alliance Of Hellhounds” are from Warlock, Iron Maiden, Anvil, Death Angel, Saxon, Hypocrisy, Soilwork, Dimmu, Rage and Candlemass! Holy heaviness! Overall some fun stuff but a lot of this gets used up too fast. ((((1)))) Yer standard intro-thrash/speed ‘ala Bay Area 1987 vs. Mayhemic Germanic 1985. ((((2)))) Crunchy gallop riffage. Pretty damn intense. A few nods to “K.E.A.”-era Metallica. (FCC “fucking thrash!”) (((((3))))) Metal as FUCK! Catchy, anthemic “unity” feeling. The first lines are a history lesson and the vocals-daaamn! (((4))) Thick tone, battering, straight-forward & catchy but not really going far enough. (((5))) Acoustic noodling, shifts between quiet & loud, plodding & mostly bland. ((((6)))) Rhythmic, nice basic drums, gang vocals, similar to their 1988 “Release From Agony” LP. ((((7)))) Megadeth-like, jagged riffing, too much forced vocal breakdowns. ((((8))) A little confused between the fast vs. slow, should’ve stayed with one or the other. ((9)) Asleep at the wheel and too scatter-brained. (((((10))))) Hell yeah! Kick-ass The “Mad Butcher” is now “Bonded By Blood”! (FCC “fucking life”, “worthless fuck”) ((((11)))) Gnarly vocals, Schimer has a great range. Solid, headbangin’ riffs. (FCCs “fucking” sung twice) (((12))) Acoustic outro. | ||
