Blood Tsunami
As others have noted, naming an album
Thrash Metal,
as this new Norwegian band has done,
has its plusses and minuses -- it's certainly not an original title,
but at least it gives listeners at least some idea of what
to expect.
This is thrash metal, true, but this more along the lines of
modern thrash, with a hint of melodic death metal,
and rarely resembling the
Kill 'Em All worship that
several bands are latching onto these days.
Featuring Pete Evil of Norway's MTV Headbanger's Ball on
vocals and the one and only Faust on drums
(he who, after cutting his teeth in
Emperor
and then serving a stint in jail, seems to appear in a new band
every three months), this is all pretty good stuff, if a shade
one-dimensional and samey.
Evil's harsh vocals aren't in line with old-school thrash, but they
do enforce the modern thrash feel of the album.
Thrash Metal is a decent first effort, though some broadening
of horizons is in order if they wish to rise above the masses.
