Bolt Thrower - Mercenary (1998) Reviewed on 11/30/04 |
Vewy Good Nation: United Kingdom Album Genre: Death Metal Pros: Mid paced death metal that consists of nothing special, just a tried and true style of death metal that these British death metallers definitely have a trademark on. Bolt Thrower is an interesting band with a trudgy sound to their guitars that can go fast, but has this amazing ability to really sound like it is still going slower, and then the pace really does slow down and it becomes a blunt force maneuver to the head of anyone who is listening. This is an effective CD from a great death metal outfit. Cons: If you're not in the mood, the pace can become a bit repetitive. However, cranking this CD up in your car will surely cure you of any misgivings you have about this album. |
