Arrrrrgggghhhhh! Hell fucking yeah! A new album from this Teutonic Thrash Machine is always a motive of joy to me, and “Bloodrust Scythe” just came out in the right moment to bring me a rest after listening a pile of crap in the past three weeks!
The album makes a fair continuation of their debut “Slaves of the Burning Pentagram” but with some slight improvements, well, that depends of the beholders eye of course. I say it so, because the new album was recorded with the idea to make it sound a bit rawer than their first record, however, the sound is perfect, very much in the likes of the mid 80’s kind of analogue recordings and I guess that was their intention, making it sound aged I mean. Don’t misunderstand me here, the album sounds clear and has a very good production behind it, but its texture is much more natural and let say “organic”. Just pay attention to the drum kit and the whole string instrumentation and you’ll get my point. As about the song writing, they bet for a bit longer songs, therefore, much more varied in their dynamic and adding a bit more of passages across each song. Most of them have a play time rounding the 6 minutes, so you know what I mean.
Well, not much to tell really. If you liked their previous album as much as I did, then go ahead with eyes closed and spend some bucks in your copy. You won’t regret it at all! As soon as the opener song “Night of the Possessed” starts spinning, you’ll get possessed in a head banging experience able to let your body headless! HAILS TO HELLISH FUCKING CROSSFIRE!
