INSANITER
– Back In The Days
Independent
Channeling a reservoir of pent-up anger, anxiety, and
bitterness towards our purportedly "modern" and
"democratic" world, where injustice thrives and the many suffer for
the benefit of a privileged few, I seek refuge and release in the realm of
thrash metal music. It's not happenstance that this genre deliberately injects
political discourse into its sound; it's a conscious rebellion.
Having traversed the sonic landscape with INSANITER
for years, introducing their distinctive sound in the past, I eagerly embraced
their latest opus – a formidable compilation of 20 compositions, clocking over
80 minutes.
The familiarity of certain compositions, echoing from
previous releases, is by design. With Petros now the sole creative force, he
infuses these tracks with his unique, personal touch. Let me share the
resonance of this latest musical journey.
As hinted earlier, INSANITER confidently navigates the
thrash metal domain, infusing brutal vocal elements reminiscent of black/death
metal. Influences trace back to the German thrash metal scene, with respectful
nods to the American thrash metal legacy – a fusion echoing KREATOR,
DESTRUCTION, SODOM, interwoven with early METALLICA and SLAYER. Vocals evoke
the spirit of Mille Petrozza and Tom Angelripper.
What distinguishes INSANITER is their mastery in
crafting compositions with razor-sharp riffs dynamically enriched by melodies,
maintaining aggression without compromise. This nuanced approach injects vital
variety into their sonic palette, ensuring sustained listener engagement
throughout the release.
True to form, INSANITER not only meets but exceeds
expectations. The album, underscored by a dynamic and crystal-clear production,
beckons exploration. It's time to immerse yourself in the decade-spanning
journey of INSANITER, where experience has not only seasoned but evolved their
sound – an innovative yet familiar symphony.
