Review

Since I dug on this band's new album so much, I was glad to see Shadow Kingdom Records is releasing repressings of their older material. This is their second album, originally put out in 2011, but it's more than worthy of an update so more people can hear it.

This album is heavier and a bit slower than Dawn of the Axe, with more of a Bathory, Hellhammer vibe to it, with crushing riffs and more of a marching-to-war pace mixed in with the Sodom-styled thrashing. Differences aside, this album is every bit as entertaining as their more recent work, and if you are a fan of bands like Nocturnal or Desaster, then this should be on your list.
