Today’s review is of Austrian Thrash Metal bands Darkfall and Mortal Strike’s new split.
Both sides include 2 new powerful tracks, a cover of the other band and a cover of a classic. Darkfall have decided to do an original medley of Manowar’s “Warriors of the World” and “Hail And Kill” named “Hail To The Warriors”, while Mortal Strike have covered Tankard’s “Freibier”. Their covers of each other have also been decently done to a point that they even sound as original songs.
Meanwhile, all 4 original songs bring powerful new grooves to their discographies in a really powerful way that takes Thrash Metal to its most extreme limit, but even though their rhythms are pure thrashing mayhem, perhaps they lack some slight distinctive touch and both vocal performances seem damaged by a bad choice of effects. Nonetheless, this is a very decent split that will surely make you maniacally bang your head.
I recommend this album to fans of Thrash Metal, especially Teutonic Thrash. My rating is of 8/10.
