乐队列表 Thrash Metal Dreadnaught Dreadnaught

With this new album including 12 furious tracks, the Australian band Dreadnaught shows his agressive thrash side for which they are well known. Three particularly quiet and melodic intrumentals, "Reflections" (part 1, 2, 3), are also included which is a nice transition.
Recorded and mixed by Peter Bowman (Frankenbok), this album juggles with a certain suppleness between melodic intros and heavy, very heavy, tones. What gives to tracks a certain impact.

As I said, the three instrumentals were placed in the tracklist with a certain intelligence, marking a break in a journey in the heart of a very rhythmical and powerful metal.

I cannot say, of my point of view, that I liked all the tracks. What I can say to you, on the other hand, it's that some of them really slapped me in the face: "The Push", at once enigmatic and powerful piece, is probably the most attractive track of the album.
"Collapse", including a more quiet intro is a slap to make you lose your balance, filled with power underlined by guitars, height perched in a dark sky.
"Agony / ecstasy" rings as a good an old Testament then falls again, cut in its run-up by melodic bridges, before restartinging again in that infernal spiral.
"1O times the pain" is an anti-love track but particularly powerfull.

As you understood, this album is powerful, dark and agitated. It takes you in mid 90's inspirations and in the heart of a massive destruction world.
If an advice can be given, listen to it, and listen again, to discover...
