Fire on the Brain Vol.1 ATTENTION SPEED METAL DEMONS!
ATTENTION SPEED-METAL HEADS! This CD will knock you're little sockies off! With the exception of one track, this CD showcases a wide array of "less-than-well-known" dark speed metal bands and is an absolute must for all head-banging, mosh-pitting, multiple skin pierced, "everything in my warerobe is black" kin-folk! To the untrained ear, all songs sound the same.... alot of unintelegable deep growling, and bass rhythms that are tempoed so fast that you swear the percussionist has four... no FIVE legs to get those drums cycling so fast. Some tracks are "treble-subdued", meaning the cymbals and other instruments on the upper end of the sound spectrum are not as bright as one would expect but, thats one of the fine attributes of this genere of music... DARK, SUBDUED, and DEATHLY COLD.
I slipped this CD in the car and next thing I knew, I was cruising down the highway well over the speed limit. While I don't condone breaking the law, this CD DOES get things going! (After the State Highway patrol Officer listened to a few tracks, he understood my situation, and let me off with a simple warning... "SLOW DOWN!" Problem is, I can't!
From start to finish, this CD... although blindfully dark and threatening, KICKS!Read full review...
