Today’s review is of American Thrash Metal band Varnok’s new EP.
This band delivers furious Thrash that lingers between classic Thrash, Death Thrash and even Hardcore. This new release is covered with civil unrest and anarchism in a similar way to Max Cavalera’s Go Ahead And Die, with the same level of violence displayed as a result. Topping all with a putrid vocal performance that at times may remind of Blizzard though striving slightly towards a more guttural range and a raw production, the EP may appeal to fans of anything extreme.
Despite the straightforward assault, the band also allow themselves some space for technique, and although this may not always get well attached to the music, at times it gives a nice sonority. Together with the notable bass presence, this surely gives their music some personal identity, which is surely always good. My personal highlights are “Anticop” and “The Deluge Of Fire”.
I recommend this album to fans of Thrash Metal. My rating is of 8/10.
