After ingesting and thoroughly enjoying several listening sessions I can honestly say these Italians DO indeed have the Power to Thrash ! When I first heard this I was immediately drawn to the vocalist who sounds like a great mixture of John Bush from ARMORED SAINT, not so much the early stuff but later AS albums) and Phil Rind from the very missed SACRED REICH. I´m glad to see they´re still remembered in Italy :-). The band draw most of their influence to the sounds of American Heavy / Speed / Power Metal from the 80s. The riffing is the "meat" of the album with a constant rhythmic bombardment and distinct crunching perfection just great for headbanging. They´re "riffalicious" ! Riff upon riff will flood your senses coupled with the fantastic vocals and a perfect bass and drum combo. Highly recommended for all Thrash / Heavy Metal fans.

Never judge a book by it’s cover, no matter how weird the band name or oblique the cd cover. Those were my impressions at first but in no time I was humming and bopping to the heavy muffled crunches and harmonies of the Bill Clinton inspired lyrics of “GUILTY OF HUMANITY”. The cool sounds of Cain’s Alibi don’t stop there. With “SANCTIFIED’s” thumping and well heard bass lines is the song that should have made Ozzy’s “Ozzmosis”. Lines such as “I sell what I think that you want to hear, You buy every word that I say” and “I break every promise I make to you, Its all part of the game that we play” are my kind of lyrics; direct, to the point and speak the truth but they are not always so simple. In general they exert interest and are thoughtfully provoking. They cover topics such as society’s sins, political powers, human gullibility, war and how people control their own destiny. What does the music sound like you ask? Well, most of the times I kept getting hit with sounds of Sacred Reich in their days of “The American Way” but not speed wise.
