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...
