Today’s review is of A.R.T. Records’ new singles compilation, all of American Death Metal bands.
This compilation of unreleased tracks really displays the multiple subtly different approaches to the genre that exist throughout the country, with some tracks being really pure Death Metal and others being slightly mixed with Thrash or Black Metal. What they all have in common is this: all bands featured are brutal, old-school and raw (but only enough as to be cool and still be understandable).
If you play this release, you’ll get hints of Cannibal Corpse sometimes, on other songs of Deicide and perhaps even of more distant from Death Metal bands like Macabre or Rotting Christ. This is quite enjoyable and doesn’t really have any skippable tracks. If you’re an avid collector and a fan of any of the bands included (Deracination, Faithful Witness, Final Prophecy, Mansoul, Oblation, Royal Anguish and The Risen) you should consider buying this.
I recommend this compilation to fans of American Death Metal.
