THE CROWN - Cobra Speed Venom



THE CROWN - Cobra Speed Venom

Metal Blade Records


This one is a little atypical for me, be it my first learning about the band and the music itself. It is in a strange genre, more like two genres mixed into one. But they complete the task of getting the job done in the music department. They have slow, medium and fast tempos throughout the entire album. The Spotify version has 4 bonus tracks for people that cannot get enough of this band. Totally original piece of work! I've not heard their earlier material, though I'd really like to. It just is amazing the whole way through. Not much on the lyrical concepts, just the music is what's most important.

The production quality meshed everything together wisely. Everything is pretty much heard throughout. So yeah, it's definitely one of the better albums released in 2018. Let's hope that they have a follow-up with another that's as good or even better! Total ear annihilation with the release, but it just slams home. I really enjoyed the whole album. The riffs are catchy and unique. The tempos are all over the place and the vocals shine with utmost vigor. These guys sure know how to kill it! I'm appalled that I haven't discovered this band up until most recently. They've been out there for a while, just haven't much noticed.

The mixing is superb and everything seems to fit on here. All the music and all the guitars are heard entirely. I think they tackle all ends of their unique style. The leads are pretty good, too. Top notch riffs and vocals. They really put forward and album that has a lot of balls. Just most of it takes time to digest but when you're idle and you hear this, you're blown away! It totally kills, the whole release. The thrash and melodic bits kill it. I'm surprised that this didn't get more reviews because they should be out in the open about musicians who truly know how to tear it up from a musical standpoint.

Get this on CD or Spotify, it's surely worth it. Show the band that you appreciate them and their music. They're pretty underground, but sick as f***! This is one album you don't want to miss out on. It's one that's filled with dynamite. When their going they're really going balls out. Intense as shit. I love this release and if you like metal, so will you. The energy and the darkness of the atmosphere, it simply crushes. I'm certain that this is one that really kicked ass upon it's birth. So yeah, be ready to implode on their style and unique-ness. They really are an admirable band. Get it, today!
