Affliktor – Affliktor
Tony Knapp – Guitars, Vocals, Drums, Bass
Transcending Obscurity Records
Guitar legend Toby Knapp is back with another dose of metal
mayhem from his newest band. The album
starts with Storms of Demogorgon with blast beats from hell shredding guitar
and growls that would make any demon proud this album starts off by grabbing
you by the throat and not letting go. Next
up is Born to the Breeder with an excellent fist pumping metal riff followed by
Backwards into Hell. This song sounds like it was written and recorded in Hell. Fans of extreme death metal will love this song and album Chaos Magick has some
excellent metal riffs and shredding leads along with the blast beat drums Burn
the Earth takes hold of your brain and makes you head bang until it hurts. The Singularity just runs your ass over with
all of its might and force. Planet Rogue
is another great metal riff in the style of Annihilator. Nothing Shall Arise is an excellent mosh pit
song with its driving riffs and beats. Pazuzu Invokes ends the album with some
strange guitar sounds that pierce into your brain.
Clockwork – Kill In Time
Lou Cebello – Vocals, Tommy Vetterli – Guitar, Peter J
Waelty – Bass, Peter Haas – Drums
The album starts off with Push a metal industrial sounding
song that has a very infectious rhythm. Next is Perfect Victim this is more of a
thrash speed metal song and would be great to mosh to. Many Faced has more of a classic metal feel
to the guitar riffs alternating back
and forth from thrash to more classic metal. Killing Time is like a machine
gun shooting riffs at you with a very solid beat it also has some slower
melodic twists and turns. Peacemaker
has more of a groove beat and almost a blues metal guitar sound mixed with some
industrial. Stronzo is a great metal
song with a riff that just makes you want to mosh. Rape The Dinosaurs reminds me of Suicidal Tendencies with an
excellent groove rhythm. The Fog begins with a Bass riff then the rest of the
band kicks in with a slow plodding
rhythm. This album has many influences but is well worth checking out and
deciding for yourself .
