Why the need for a solo thrash/death project, one can
wonder. But here Pete Flesh (Deceiver, Thrown ex. Maze Of Torment) controls
everything himself (with a little help with the drums). It is classic
old brutality from the time when thrash spilled over to death, with
a touch of grind. That means that the riffs are fast and monotonous.
That also means that it never become more fun than the first track.
You need to be in a special aggressive mood to put this on and stay
with it for a whole record. As Flesh writes on his website, this is
for "the morbids and the obscure". But he also writes about
how he has the full possibilities for his creativity in Flesh, to put
in things that is normally not included in this kind of music. Exactly
how this creativity takes its form, he forgot to mention. I cannot help
you I'm afraid.
On the first couple of tracks there is not a single riff
or melody that is catching attention as anything else than standard
brutality. Visions Of Damnation and Rotten Through The Skin has that
special groove, and a couple of tempo changes, that can make thrash
more dynamic. Baptised On The Demon's Throne however has a bit of melody
in its riffing, and solos. But after that it's down to the basic again,
and I feel a headache grow. Fortunately the relief comes after only
40 minutes. Silence can be a wonderful thing.
