There is a subtle melody line behind - or beneath - the songs.

Well, this is a shockingly good Thrash release. Exceptionally engaging and melodious leads in there. To be fair the guitar work in general is quite impressive on here. Also I've always been a sucker for this blend of black & thrash, especially when it is so well done.

I personally find the vocals brilliant. The duality in tone and the aggressivity reminds me a little of older Skeletonwitch. Quite the good drumming too.

This is overall a very good album and I'm surprised it hasn't been talked about more. Kudos to this young band and I'm gonna go check me some more Chronicle.

My Highlights: "Where Chaos Thrives" - "Horror Unearthed" - "Usher In The End" - "The Black Tide" - "New Dark Age"
