Martyrd – The Mortal Coil (2012)

i hear a metalcore influenced take on melodic thrash with the metalcore primarily manifesting in the guitar writing. they even employ breakdowns and breakdown style riffing in the 3 songs i listened to. i decided to check on metal-archives and im not the only one who hears metalcore in their music. i guess im just a purist or something, or, well, more like anti-core in my metal, because i like death/thrash and black/thrash and crossover. power/thrash is just alright (more…)

Plector – Punishment Day 2012

now!

This is a really good release from a small town Swedish band. A band that quit just the other day.

I don’t have the details about the breakup so I won’t comment on that. “Punishment Day” on the other hand, has been in my ears a few hours now. It’s a solid album packed with riffing, tight drumming and super-evil vocals. Sound-wise there’s nothing to complain about: the mix is clean but heavy. Style-wise I ended up thinking that this is some kind of Meshuggah turned heavy metal turned death metal. Don’t get too hung up on that simile though.

Metallica – Orion Music + More (The Black Album) / Fest-Night II (2012)

Once the lads from Sheffield finished their strong set, Metallica took the stage to the familiar strains of their longtime Ennio Morricone-penned opener, “The Ecstasy of Gold,” and immediately brought their fans way back – as far back as possible – to the first song the band ever recorded, “Hit the Lights.” They wasted no time further laying on the thrash with “Master of Puppets” and “The Four Horsemen.” The much-hyped Ride the Lightning section arrived a few songs later, with the band performing the album in reverse, probably an easy decision for a record that ends with a long and winding instrumental (“The Call of Ktulu”) and begins with as fast, heavy and precise a track as the band has ever written (“Fight Fire With Fire”). The song “Escape” received its world premiere, a somewhat shocking feat for a 28-year-old song, but hearing it live served as a sufficient reminder as to why it had been cast aside for so long.
