| #FOR FANS OF: Thrash Metal, Pantera |
This album from start to finish is a never-ending amazing guitar riffs, leads, vocals and production quality that is top notch! This is a MONUMENTAL RELEASE. Within the thrash arena, these guys I'm sure battled with the Bay Area thrash metal bands back in the day. They sure as heck know how to grind it out with some truly amazing guitar they didn't or don't have a huge history of albums but I still think that they have some intriguing sounds coming out of these speakers! I wouldn't think rating this any less than a perfect score. They nailed it all the way through. I wouldn't say that they are thrash/groove, I'd say mostly thrash.
The vocals compliment the guitar work and the most invigorating part of the album is the guitar work. They just hit home all the way in this department. Being a time where thrash was paving its way into the metal community with bands like Metallica, Megadeth, Death Angel, et al. Exhorder has this unique style of guitar-work that really keeps the listener interested all the way through. The crunch tone guitars are just amazing. And the production does the band justice. The leads were amazing too, and I think this guitar work is something that cannot be duplicated.
I wouldn't want the band to change anything about this release. They really show maturity from early on. I'm not into the lyrics but the vocals go well alongside the music. It's not whiny or annoying. The vocals, that is. The music is the best thrash from the day, aside from what Metallica put out in the 80's. The music is just simply insurmountably amazing. And the fact that I didn't discover this band up until recently is a shame. These guys are just simply amazing musicians. They're album 'Slaughter In the Vatican' is going to remain one of the best releases in early 1990's. Sick as all hell!
If you haven't heard this band or this album, I urge you to do so immediately! This is one of the best thrash releases from back in the day when thrash was just getting a liking to the metal arena. These guys bring home one big MONUMENT. I see no flaws in this album or any of these songs. I'm urging listeners of metal music to get this if you haven't it's 30 years old now!! Help them keep the faith in thrash metal and you can be a sure follower of this group, even if it is just this album from theirs. I'm sure they'd be flattered at the fact that you took time to invest in their efforts! Long live Exhorder! (Death8699)
