Today’s review is of Russian OSDM band The Saw’s new album.
This release offers some classic kick-ass Death Metal in all its heaviness with few melodies to colour it all and never falling into excessive and tiring brutality.
The album reminds of the classic European scene, with a similar approach also based on a gory and darker version of Thrash, although it also has its breakdowns and slower excruciating riffs. This is a solid full-length that may be enjoyed by fans of many different subgenres of Death Metal and by any enjoyer of the old-school glory days. Although some songs feel as if they have too many vocals, their performance is putrid and powerful. So it gets well compensated in my opinion. My personal highlights are “The Temple Of The Saw” and “’Cause I Don’t Like To Lose”.
I recommend this album to fans of Death Metal. My rating is of 8,5/10.
