Métal Intégral - Review / OVERKILL

Comeback!

Approximate translation of the review

The first thing you notice about this album is the cover. Some will find it repulsive and it is true that OVERKILL is a divine gift for us lay pockets that call to be polite. But as repulsive as it is I find it very beautiful and ultimately quite suited to the music. Musically the tone is set from the first notes of The Green And Black: the sound is very heavy, heavy and black.

production, although often not at all terrible, but getting better lately here is quite adequate and gives some unhealthy side effect of the most beautiful in all. Note also the excellent work of Dave LINSK and Derek TAILER on guitar, either at the enormous riffs but devilishly effective or beautiful solos. The music here is very elaborate and is not a simple gadget that allows Bobby ELLSWORTH to put his voice. The

vocalizations that have probably never been so much development, demonstrating the guy sings divinely! Certainly one of his best performances, in every shade and always impeccable whether in a register poignant or aggressive. Titles are generally mid-tempo, with some exceptions because some are faster. The guitars and bass (super audible to change) are very heavy most of the time and the keyboard just add a touch of levity can not be more disturbing.

Let us not be afraid to award Ironbound trophy for best album of the American thrash out long ago ...

City : Lyon	Un album excellllllent qui m'a fait renouer des liens un peu oubliés avec le trash. Je classe cet album avec les meilleurs du genre des années 80. Pour moi assurément, il fera partie du top de l'année 2010.
