The guys scare everyone initially with the brutal death metal rager 'My Personal Terror', but afterwards things don't sound too different from the previous recording, the nice soothing ballad 'Emotional Cripple' a relative winner with its nice serene motifs, the closing jumpy drama 'Kill' another positive occurrence. 'A-Rise' is a varied post-thrash/post-death affair with a solid pinch of groove. 'Unforgiving' is a wild mechanical shredder with echoes of Meshuggah, and 'Myoldway' is a less bridled thrashcore insanity the rest very seldom leaves the confines of the good old pedestrian post-thrash. The approach is linear despite the several quirks in the riff-department. 'Shine of Abyss' is a really nice short melo-thrasher, and the closing 'Paradoxes of Time' is a cover of the Ukrainian thrashers Fatal Energy.īased on 'Re Evil Lotion', these lads, who were previously known as A-Rise and were playing more orthodox retro death metal, pull out choppy abrasive post-thrash with frequent more quiet breaks. Tunes on 'For the Cult', and for the brutal Slayer-esque rhythms on 'Hammer of the Ghetto Tsa', the latter's impetuousness matched by the Russian-sungīased on the full-length, this act provide decent atmospheric black/thrash which comes with both progressive and death metal-ish ('Blood Color Sky') shades at times, but the dominant delivery is epic and officiant ('Through the Pain'), the vicious black metal vocals prominently heard including on the imposing doomy pageant 'Giennah'. 'Join the Bear Cult' is another highly dynamic thrash/crossover slab, the uplifting unpretentious tone retained the entire time, the delivery at timesĬatchy and infectious ('Not Today'), at others formidable and foreboding (the steam-rolling drama 'Fire It Up'). The second half in an unpretentious, nonchalant manner. 'Enter Bearface' is a short melodic stomper, and 'Style' reveals more stripped-down hardcore-ish aesthetics ala Pro-Pain which dominate 'Metal Bear Stomp' carries on in the same direction with ripping uplifting tunes coming in spades from invigorating cuts like the title-track and 'Can't The vocals are shouty and punkish assisted by the others on the numerous choruses. The guys are proficient musicians and they manage to come up with a few more diverse cuts, like the death metal-laced 'Still in the Game' and the surprisingly serious progressiver 'Fire from the Grave' which oppose to the monolithic wall of merry sharp riffage which comprises most of this effort.

The debut: direct in-your-face thrash/crossover brought to you straight from Siberia (kidding, of course!). The vocalist is a semi-shouty death metaller with a comprehensive and forceful approach.Ģ songs of noisy crusty thrashcore in a constant up-tempo with buzzy guitars and monotonous shouty vocals. The band mix the tempos so there's no boredom to be witnessed despite the not very eventful delivery which only drags for a bit on the overlong 'Fist Of Pestilence'. It can't be termed 'progressive', but the song-structures are clever despite their somewhat monotonous nature.īased on the debut, these Czech purveyors pull out competent old school thrash/death metal which come sserved with an elusive semi-technical edge (the fast stylish shredder 'Necrosadus') recalling mid-period Pestilence whereas on the longer material the shadow of Sepultura (think 'Arise' and 'Beneath the Remains', above all) is quite strong. The band try to play it more complex, which comes for the sake of the fast sections, which are not many at all, replaced by thundering, 10-ton riffs (check out 'Under Dark Skies') with a doomy flavour.

This is classic power/proto-thrash which comes with very buzzy guitars and good clean vocals. The abrasive edge of the guitars may recall some acts from the industrial scene (Swamp Terrorists, later-period Skrew, etc.) the latter disappears for the cool balladic closer 'Vel Tur Ir Cels', which boasts the most proficient execution on the album. The music is jumpy and crunchy with the casual more clever twist, as well as the more aggressive adherence to purer thrash ('Taisnibas'). This is your average post-thrash for the new generation.
