I don�t know why, but I was sure that Bloodthirst was a death metal band. I�ve never heard of them before, so I can�t say why I thought so, I just did. So imagine my surprise when I press play and furious old school thrash metal hits my eardrums. But this also made me a tad skeptical at first, just �cause it didn�t lived up to my expectations. After putting my expectations behind me I could fully experience the blast from the past.
Pretty fast forward old school thrash in the vein of Kreator. Ripping riffs and very blackened thrash screams, utterly satanical and energetic-as-hell. It�s difficult to resist the energy and mosh/headbang-friendly tunes of Let Him Die. �Cause it has that certain thing that just get your feet and hands going. As soon as a solo starts you can�t help but to do some airguitaring. The bass is quite audible and pummeling, which adds a nice flavor. Bass has a tendency to more just lurk in the background, but here it�s really part of the music outcome. The guitar solos are sharp and ripping, the drums are quite hammering, and as I said the bass is pummeling. Add to that the quite gurgling screams of Mr. Rambo (nice name, by the way), and you�ve got yourself a killer album. The sound is wicked and thick and perfect for the music.
There are some really golden moments here, like the intro to the opening track and the guitar lead in Excommunion (sacrifice for hell). But the entire album should easily satisfy any fan of screaming old school thrash. It�s energetic-as-hell and a perfect album for an evening of beers with your mates.
