(For ENGLISH version of this review, please read below)
El segundo disco de esta banda thrasher londinense marca un paso adelante en relación con su debut “Created In Hate”. La propuesta es nétamente metálica y los guiños al punk que tanto se advertían en “Created...” desaparecen. Instrumentalmente la banda suena muy ajustada, con unas guitarras más depuradas, filosas y el vocalista/guitarrista Si con un rango más “enojado” en su voz.
La influencia del primer Slayer sobrevuela en los ocho temas (Hay una introducción y un outro). Quienes amen la velocidad sentirán la sangre fluir por sus venas con “Lethal Dose”, “Legacy Of Hate” e “Into The Flames... Of Armaggeddon”, llenos de agresión y riffs filosos con virulencia. Otro ejemplo es “Skinned Alive” y su virulencia lascerante, con una letra en donde se critica la matanza de focas y el maltrato a los animales.
Que la velocidad sea lo primordial no implica la presencia de tiempos medios con machaques de viola en temas como “Lost Souls”, o variaciones rítmicas mezcladas de riffs variados y dinámicos caso de “No Rest For The Wicked”, y mismo “Enter The Realm” con su alta carga de enojo y ritmo marchoso.
“Internal Darkness” amaga con bajar las revoluciones en su inicio, con Bod y Si creando un clima muy oscuro, a medio tiempo con guitarras muy logradas para a partir de 04:30 hasta 05:02 estallar en la más genuina furia.
“The Ultimate Desecration” es un excelente disco de thrash metal, ideal para fans de Slayer y ni hablar, del Old School Thrash Metal. Esta banda merece mucho más reconocimiento no sólo por sus viejos discos, sino por su reciente reunión. Marquee Records reeditó este CD con un booklet lleno de anécdotas, comentarios de las letras y abundantes fotos de la banda.
Si quieren thrash metal que los estampe contra la pared, no duden en buscar estas creaciones de odio.
Calificación: 9/10.
ENGLISH:
The second record of this London thrash metal band marks a real step forward in comparison with their first LP effort “Created In Hate”. Here the music is very focused into metal and the punk influences founded in “Created...” dissapear. Instrumentally the band sounds really tight with developed, sharpened guitars plus Si (Guitar/Vocals) with a voice that shows more anger.
The influence of old Slayer is remarkable and present, flying over the whole songs. For those who like speedish moments will feel their blood pumping on their veins with “Lethal Dose”, “Legacy Of Hate” or “Into The Flames... Of Armageddon”, all of them plenty of aggression and crushing riffs. Another example is the lascerating virulency of “Skinned Alive”, with a letter that criticizes the seal cull.
That the speedness and non-stop guitar attack is the primordial factor of this album doesn’t mean that we could find mid-tempos with strong rhythym guitars such as “Lost Souls”, or rhythym changes mixed with dynamic and consistent riffings in “No Rest For The Wicked”, or “Enter The Realm” with a high charge of anger.
“Internal Darkness” attempts to slow down the RPM during the first minute with Bod and Si creating a very dark climax starting a mid tempo with worked guitars, but from 04:30 to 05:02 the song really explodes in a real fury and madness.
“The Ultimate Desecration” is an excellent piece of thrash metal ideal for Slayer fans and Old School Thrash Metal lovers. This band really deserves a lot more of recognition not for have released two remarkable works during the eighties: they have reunited and are back for more. Marquee Records from Brazil re-release this CD (And also “Created...”) with a booklet full of histories, commented lyrics, and pics of the band. If you want thrash that stamps you to a wall, go for this creations of hate.
Rate: 9/10.
