New stuff from Space Chaser. I was looking forward to it, because "Give us Life" was a killer album.

Sadly, remarkable singer Siegfried has left the band a few years ago which is a great loss.

The music on this album is good, however not quite as strong as on the predecessor. They added a grain of savagery and gang shouts. So is sounds a bit more old school to me.

But the vocals just can't keep up, I am afraid. Guys, get yourself a remarkable singer again. It would be worth it!

Solid work! As usual the guitar work is special and razor sharp.

Many fast songs, some old school bangers and some with a more contemporary flavour.

Sometimes the choruses would profit from a bit more versatility, but that is small criticism. The small guitar melodies are always nice.

I personally could do without the last three songs on the album, but I really do like the great majority.

New album by the German band with really bad luck in name finding.

It's not a super sharp shooter, however it's a good record from the DIY underground guys and ladies.

Current Kreator vibes are heard, however accompanied by lots of gang shouting and generally rougher vocals. I dig the bass that's rattling often in the foreground.

Give it a try!

I think they should have done the vocals differently. More aggression would do good IMO.

All in all the original is far better than this cover version. This is a bit lukewarm, which is a shame, because I love Heathen.

There is a new song by Exumer with a nice oldschool touch to it.

Endseeker - Coffin Born

The good men of Endseeker call it quits, however released an EP for a proper goodbye.

I always found the music very entertaining. From my point of view it's rooted in Swedish DM (Entombed), but they added their unique touch to it.

And they do crazy cover versions. 🙂

Sometimes my brain stubbornly suggests I dig deep in the crates for an old song I haven't listened to in years. These days it was "Reality - When you die" by GOREFEST.

A brooding, dynamic, versatile and for the time it was recorded a bit unusual death metal piece by this great Dutch group.

I hope this is pure enough for this valued special interest community.

Another German band, this time combining thrash metal with melodic hardcore parts especially when it's for the choruses.

IMO a quite vivid composition, lively and energetically delivered.

Death Metal with a good grain of Thrash Metal in it. Generally a very straightforward track, however with nice details especially in the drum section.

The vocals are exquisitely arranged and sound very German if I may say so. Not the accent but the voice itself. Reminds me of Morgoth and Disbelief, two other great German bands.

The new record by Exodus. Still they have the best guitar sound in thrash metal in my opinion.

However Exodus have done better than this collection of new songs. IMO it's a solid recording but it misses the last bit of spicyness. There's just one step missing to insanity. And this insanity is what makes brilliant Exodus albums special to me.

Maybe it's because Zetro left once again?

Yes, another post about this great band from the past. I will stop right after this one. 😄

This song is from the album Manic Impressions, which is more technical than Screams and Whispers.

Progressive thrash metal from 1991, highly acclaimed by critics, obviously not so much by the fans. Enjoy it anyway.

Obscura - A Sonication

The newest album of this exceptional Progressive Death Metal band/project recurs to more compact songs than on the former records. Also the overall approach is more melodic.

However with “Sun Eater” you can also find brutally. But IMO it feels a bit out of place on this album.

All songs are great and it is hard to pick a favourite. But I choose “Stardust” https://tidal.com/track/396369829/u
