DESTROYER
666 - Never Surrender
Season of Mist
This is actually my introduction to the band, so as
you can see I'm way behind in their discography. This one perked my ears up. And I'm in huge contrast to the average
scores giving this one a "D" rating.
I thought that it was very interesting of a release. They flourished their black/thrash metal
throughout this recording. The riffs were
fresh, the production strong and the vocals are way better than tolerable. These guys know how to get it done
musically. The music itself really
impressed me. And the voice to the album
just went so well with the guitars and drums.
There was a little echo effect with the voice which made it darker as an
album.
I thought all the songs were well constructed. Definitely a band that knows what their
doing. Leads were crystal clean and the
shred was totally there. The
mixing/recording had the music sounding a little darker than what they may have
wanted but overall a great record.
I realize that not everyone has access to Spotify or
YouTube to test this one out. It's
everything and more of a recording that's solid. I enjoyed this whole album entirely. The music just took over and I've been happy
to own this now, not just digital streaming.
These guys have a huge discography behind them. And it's good that they've come out with new
music and in no way lacks ingenuity. I
like this whole album and what it's done for me as a fan. It makes me want to own more of their
LP's. I will, but I just regret that I
didn't get into them sooner. I kind of
overlooked them hearing very little of their music then I broke through and
picked up 'Never Surrender' on CD. More
than happy with it. They flourish in the
genres coming together as one. It's a
little tricky putting black/thrash together and making it a solid release. But they're experienced so they know what
they're doing.
"Mirror's Edge" and "Rather Death"
are some songs that are highlights of the album. Not to mention the title-track. Look into this!
