DEFIATORY - Apokalyps CD

The Swedes, that’s for sure, are still able to write pure thrash killers. “Only War” is a fantastic whirlwind full of double bass, razor-sharp riffing and powerful vocals. The apocalyptic chorus crowns the track and the lyrics are also great. “Broken legions watch the enemy arrive” – this picture characterizes the entire aura of the song. No doubt, to make this song the first one available on youtube was no coincidence. But how many songs of this quality can we find on “Apokalyps”? “No Place to Hide” is driven by Slayer-riffs, but this eargasm ends already after two minutes. “Let Them Burn” lives up to its name and generates a fiery heat. Only trace elements of softness appear.
