Erupting from Nashville, Tennessee is formidable hellish thrash manifestation Burning Death. The evil entity is the creation of Ethan Rock (vocals, guitar and bass), Jerry Garner (guitar) and Gore (drums and additional vocals). As debut releases go this is quite the blackened spit ball to the eyes as the furious trio whips up an intriguing amalgamation of speed metal and deathly thrash.<\/p>\n

With one dirty foot firmly entrenched in the sediment of 80s blasphemous underground, Burning Death is not interested in providing layers to their extremity. Instead, you are slashed and ripped by a rabid onslaught mixing old Slayer<\/a> and Sodom alongside a whirlwind of Brazilian spite. Even with its raw intensity there are still some nice angular executions, although nothing overly technical is apparent or necessary for that matter.<\/p>\n

\u2018Genocidal Litany\u2019 and \u2018Vengeance Of The Inferno\u2019 set the Burning Death stall up with immediate effect. The brash brace are high on Lemmy juice, particularly in the vocal department, as the tidy and devilish rapidity scurries with a teenage hostility. I\u2019d expect such heavily silted devilry to be burped out from the orifices of some crazy Chilean mob, not the place known for its Elvis Presley connections.<\/p>\n

For blowing away the cobwebs though, this rollicking hotbed of anti-Christian rants is ideal. \u2018Death Is Salvation\u2019 stinks of leather jackets not washed since 1983 as conniving axe work navigates a path through already rust-coated rhythms, while \u2018Lusting For Death\u2019 sounds like it’s just marched off of Slayer\u2019s rowdy 1983 debut album Show No Mercy<\/em><\/a>. It\u2019s all very fiendish, busy and clouded by black smoke spewing from one too many dripping candles.<\/p>\n

\u2018Cold Bite Of Steel\u2019 and \u2018Revel In Violence\u2019 are as equally fumed by their own noxious gases as the striking axe work ploughs sharp furrows of lacerated fury. It\u2019s devil metal for drifters as \u2018Severed\u2019 skittishly runs around chasing its own tail to the manic mantra of the hasty drums. Although still high on pentagram chalk, \u2018Final Sacrament\u2019 is slightly less scathing but still bathed in dim light which shows those particles of rust dust. This is old school thrash metal delivered all in the name of Satan\u2019s ever productive scrotum.<\/p>\n
