Global Warning: Escape to safer areas away from this Cd
I don't really know what's the drive that makes bands release a bad album. I mean, you can tell when the band releases an album because they want to brag that they have an album out and there are going on tour, i.e. Bullshit.
Suicide Watch is a band from England, and they play Thrash Metal, a nod to the Old-school if you want to call it that way, you know the formula, rapid riffing, fast-paced drum patterns, screaming vocals and overall aggressive attitude, oh how original.
The cover art has to be one of the worst cover arts this year, is really laughable, the inlay design is quite awful also and the productions is bad too!, while it sounds clear enough to enjoy the music, the sound is not the proper, it feels too cold and distant for a Thrash album, the sound should be more involving and warm-sounding, so if you really want to hear this, you might wanna press the bass button up.
Musically, Suicide Watch brings nothing new, and nothing interesting if I might say, if you heard some Thrash in the eighties, you'll find many familiar sounds here, but after 20 years the same sounds loose originality, that's a fact.
So, summing thing up, what you'll find in this album? Thrash Metal with a lot of Old-School influences, sadly, the band never achieves the level of the Thrash bands from the eighties, and it becomes a boring listen, because if I wanted to listen Thrash from the eighties I would listen Nuclear Assault, Kreator and Overkill.
I wonder who's the first fool to write me telling me the cover art is so cool?
