 Bell Burton’s performance is, indeed, very inconsistent; his growls are very powerful and wicked, but when he presents his 'clean' voice, it’s painful.

 The album features many 'metropolitan' effects, in urban violence style and police radio transmissions.

Fear Factory's Obsolete marked the band's rise to popularity with a fusion of death, thrash, and industrial metal. The album offers strong rhythms and energy but is hampered by inconsistent vocals and a lack of guitar solos. Production quality improved, though the music fluctuates between restrained riffs and bursts of aggression. Despite its flaws, Obsolete remains a notable industrial metal release. Explore Fear Factory's Obsolete to experience powerful industrial metal energy and decide for yourself.

 The gloomy atmosphere surrounding Death SS's work makes everything truly evocative.

 The album expresses all the artistic sense of Sylvester and co., merging that “metallic” rock with truly “dark and evil” aspects.

Death SS's Heavy Demons stands out as a pinnacle of Italian horror-metal, merging dark, gothic atmospheres with melodically eerie and thematic compositions. The album showcases a blend of medieval and occult motifs with a theatrical flair inspired by 70s horror cinema. Key tracks highlight the band's unique style, delivering a haunting and immersive listening experience. Technical creativity and atmospheric depth make this album a remarkable contribution to horror-infused rock and metal. Listen to Heavy Demons and immerse yourself in Death SS's dark, atmospheric horror metal world!

 "Techno stands for 'technical,' indicating a genre contaminated by jazz, fusion, and prog influences."

 "Fast, powerful, melancholic, angry, elaborate, technical, psychopathic, and devastating! On an emotional level, the best death metal album ever."

Released in 1991, 'Human' by Death represents a pivotal step in the evolution of death metal into the technical subgenre. Combining prog and jazz fusion elements, the album is noted for its complex rhythms and skilled musicianship. Steve DiGiorgio's bass and Sean Reinert's drumming complement Chuck Schuldiner's aggressive riffs and vocals. The emotionally intense lyrics explore deep psychological themes. 'Human' remains a landmark album showcasing innovation and ferocity in death metal. Dive into 'Human' and experience the powerful birth of technical death metal—listen now and explore this metal masterpiece!

 The voice is of absurd versatility, managing to capture in the decisive moments of the album, tones as aggressive and melodic as they are chilling and harsh!

 The formidable ability of the 5 musicians to hold attention for 24 minutes… makes this track a true jewel, in my opinion, the most beautiful one on the album.

Symphony X's The Odyssey stands out as their most imaginative and powerful prog metal album. Rooted in Greek mythology, the band delivers emotionally charged vocals and technically impressive instrumentals. Highlights include the complex title track and standout guitar and keyboard work.

 The riffs scream for massacre, a record worthy of its name!

 The uninteresting solos and the very 'black/death' voice... sour what could be a great album.

Destruction's 2001 album 'The Antichrist' delivers a dark and powerful thrash metal experience with intense rhythms and icy riffs. The vocals incorporate black/death metal tones, which some may find mismatched with the thrash sound. While the solos are well-crafted, they lack impact. Overall, the album is considered strong but may appeal subjectively based on taste. Discover the intense thrash metal power of Destruction's 'The Antichrist'—listen now and judge its dark riffs and fierce rhythms yourself!

 Simply SENSATIONAL!

 Two men, two musicians, two geniuses.

Cacophony's Speed Metal Symphony, released in 1986, is hailed as a milestone in heavy and speed metal. The album showcases the incredible virtuosity of guitarists Jason Becker and Marty Friedman.

 Imagination is totally lacking and the boredom, after a couple of listens, turns into anger, enough to make you want to take the CD and smash it with your hands!

 The performance of the Slayer drummer is the only positive note of the album.

Grip Inc.'s album Solidify marks a disappointing shift from their previous thrash metal sound towards nu-metal and atmospheric styles. The change in bassist seems to have influenced the diluted sound, causing boredom and frustration. Only Dave Lombardo's drumming stands out as a redeeming aspect. Vocals and overall creativity lack the impact of earlier works, leaving fans wanting more of the classic thrash power. Read the full review and decide if Grip Inc.'s Solidify is worth your listen or a skip!

 Anselmo's voice, unique in the world, makes the tracks truly devastating.
