South America has vast underground scene and from Brazil comes Hordes of Wrath. This is a one man band which continues in raw paths of Sarcofago, Krisiun and even European influences like Marduk can be heard in this apocalyptic demo featuring four in your face Satanic songs. The music is all out fast and aggressive black death thrash attack. Old school thrash is featured mixed with blast beats in Final Solution, for me the best song on this demo. All Must Die and All Must Die are something for you to peel your ears too. Vocals are shouted more in thrash metal vein, dirty and raw, lyrics are all out attack in your face, with killing, trampling upon corpses of christians, misanthropy and anger. This energy lacked in my music list last couple of weeks, so I am happy to have found out about Hordes of Wrath. Great demo, I am eager for a full length in the future.
‘Thanatos’ denounces the criminal government of Bolsonaro as we now face the possibility of his re-election here in Brazil.
The single, accompanied by a video, expresses the destructive character of the present government associating facts with Freud’s concept of death drive.
Brazilian hardcore punk legends are back with new album out recently. This time, they deliver 10 songs of furious and fast hardcore punk with some thrash elements, crossover that they retained throughout all their decades although experimenting at times with groove and crust punk d-beat. Vocalist Gordo sounds like in the old times, I did not like his growling on some previous albums, but he is back with his hardcore thrash shouting. Music is angry energetic bomb of hardcore fury, thrash metal vigour and political stance with songs like Alerta Antifascista , Pasa Pano pra Elite or Necropolitica sure to become live action favorites also listening favorites. There are couple of really awesome melodic hooks here and there coupled with catchy solo here and there then returning back to more hardcore anger and lyrics shouted in Portugese. This is definitely one of top five RDP albums in my opinion.
