Artillery is one of those classic second/third-tier 80's thrash bands that took the better part of nearly two decades off ('99's B.A.C.K. is their only release between 1990 and 2009), before re-launching with the thrash-revival movement and pumping out some albums.

My Blood kicks off on all cylinders, with "Mi Sangre" (The Blood Song) , a blazing track with a middle-Eastern sound in the vein of the By Inheritance openers "7:00 From Tashkent/Khomaniac". The momentum carries forward the next couple songs, "Monster" and "Dark Days". It's a rapid-fire thrash assault, excellent production, driving beat, and lots of blazing solos.

The word gen means "illusion" or "apparition." In India, a man who uses conjury is called a genjutsushi ["a master of illusion technique"]. Everything in this world is but a marionette show. Thus we use the word gen.

So... more of the same thing? Maybe just too much.

I really want to give my fellow Danes a shot, but the album cover and the title are just hilariously bad. Come on, "My Blood"? Really? And a baby being held by Death or whatever? I guess I'm superficial that way, but this kind of thing bugs me.

So what is good here? For starters, "Mi Sangre" is a fine opener track with classic Artillery vibe to it. Actually there's lots of decent stuff on this album, I mean instrument-wise it's enjoyable, but some of the lyrics and vocal arrangements ruin it for me. Not to mention the repetition of some vocal lines, it gets annoying. I.E. songs such as "Dark Days", "Death Is An Illusion" and "Ain't Giving In" are fine examples of what was said earlier. Decent songs all of them, but you don't really want hear them again. All in all this album is on the same level as "When Death Comes" when it comes to quality, although "My Blood" has better production.
