Time for another band from our Croatian scene to grace the pages of this webzine. Dying East are coming from Županja, Croatia and this is their debut album release. This one contains 8 songs, Members of this band are veterans from many bands coming from that area. Fascinating such small town and so many great bands came from there in last twenty or even twenty five years. Someone should write a book about that phenomena. Anyway, these guys play wicked version of death thrash metal with some melancholic and epic guitar melody underneath it all like in one of my favorites Devil In The Skies. Music is mainly fast but changes from aggression to melody and back again to aggressive thrash death passages coupled with hardcore punk roots of the guys who played in many previous bands that influenced their music. Some songs also remind very much of Swedish school of death metal. Lyrics are in English and are pretty allegoric and personal but not something that I can not relate to. This is superb debut album and I wish all the best to the guys from the band. Hats off!
