Death Crusade are coming from Gdansk, Poland and this is their new release consisting of eleven songs. As the cover might lead you to the conclusion, Death Crusade are playing mixture of hardcore crust punk and death metal and they do it really well. This means apocalyptic distorted bass, chainsaw cutting loud guitars sounding greasy and dirty, d-beat drumming with excursions to grindcore blast beats in some songs and barking, growling angry vocals. Mix all that and this record is sure to tear your head off with its intensity and force. Lyrics are in Polish but there are English explanations and they talk about being too passive and ignorant, alienation, against hatred, media lies and fear created by media, religious hysteria, stereotypes and depression and they are written good, not some Doom like haiku poetry, but good lyrics. There are also classic fast hardcore punk influences and I can hear some thrash metal in some quick guitar solos and I love the use of samples for intros of the songs. Polish is such beautiful language for extreme music. This is great and energetic record.
