Review

Debut for this Aussie band, doing that dirty Blackened Thrash thing Aussie bands do. I'm always up for some bitter, vicious Black/Thrash, but this is slightly less evil than I was hoping for. The guitar tone is too smooth and lacks bite, the riffs are quite repetitive, and the vocals don't have a lot of intensity or variation. This is passable, workmanlike stuff, but it's just not better than average.
