Power Trip - Nightmare Logic
Power Trip - Nightmare Logic
Some throwback thrash metal for your enjoyment. And it is really damn enjoyable; this is easily the most fun metal release that's come out this year. It's composed of eight short and simple tracks that are filled with adrenaline and aggression. It's invigorating stuff, it makes you want to move around. It bristles and braces, like some sort of feral beast. There's an urgency and an impatience.
Musically, it's constantly one-upping itself in terms of intensity, changing up the tempos and patterns for maximum menace and force. It's chugging and fast-paced, with rhythms that pummel you even as they energize you. There are growling, barking vocals and wailing, echoing, spacey riffs. It's addictively unrelenting.
Lots of metal records these days try to emphasize the epicness of their music. This record is a half hour long, and more impactful than any epic could be.
