...SIŁA I PIĘKNO MUZYKI TKWIĄ W JEJ RÓŻNORODNOŚCI...
Kolejne niemieckie skurczybyki, które powróciły z martwych w poszukiwaniu chwały i glorii.
Po raz pierwszy metalowy światek usłyszał od nich w 1987 roku, kiedy po rozgrzewce złożonej z paru demówek przypierdolili debiutanckim longplayem Death Squad. Te 37 minut to kwintesencja teutońskiego thrashu, esencja wszystkiego, co w nim najlepsze. Dostajemy więc brutalne strzały przepełnione szalonymi riffami, mocarnymi partiami perkusji i ochrypłymi wokalami nieco przypominającymi Mille z Terrible Certainty. Wszystko przypolerowane pięknym szorstkim brzmieniem. Okazjonalnie mamy smaczki takie jak gitary akustyczne w Burial At Sea, ale to tylko przystawka do nieustannej chłosty. Z całości bije niepohamowany wkurw niczym od Rafalali na widok nastolatki i Death Squad bez problemu i dziś przyprawia ciało o drgawki i skurcze.
Great melodic intro. It leads you to believe it might be the lead up to a melodic bore sensation, but no way. The first song "Critical Threshold", a manic drop into a pretty good thrash riff. The song gets much faster, as it does throughout the LP. I mean, this is Grade A thrash metal. Not totally keen the vocals at first to be totally honest, 80's style vocals in general I think are great, but in general these vocals need to be more powerful and need to grab you more. Oh well, I couldn't give a fuck.
Great fast intro on the titled track, good thing about this LP, is it starts and you think it's good, but just a simple tempo thrash LP, but not at all, goes up and down brilliant. A lot more variation than first meets the ear.
"Staatsfeind" being one of my favourite songs. When you get this far into the LP, the music is so good that the vocals almost suit it perfectly and they grow on you immensely. They seem to compliment the music, rather than spoil it. Great shouty chorus of STAATSFEIND!! Solo is spot on suited to that song (you know some solos just should not be there etc).
"Tarsman Of Ghor" is a rather talented instrumental, but to me has no real point or meaning being there. But then again I have never appreciated instrumentals in the middle of LPs for the sake of it, especially as they would actually suit vocals. What the fuck?!?! O_O
The solos on this LP are consistently good, which isn't too common. Considering MOST bands put a solo there for the sake of it and never really put much heart or self meaning into them.
"Phantasmagoria" has a great intro, and digresses into a great song.
