Belgium´s Evil Invaders made quite an impression on the scene with their two e.p.-s, two full lengths and one live album since their inception in 2007. Now, it is time for third full length opus with Napalm Records and it is a crusher. Evil Invaders play old school thrash speed metal like it was played back in the eighties when all those great bands prowled and ruled the metal lands. This one offers ten songs of thrash speed mayhem with high pitched old school style of vocals, courtesy of singer Joe and fast guitar work and drums, but also there is an European school of thrash melody and drama underneath it all, like in fantastic Hissing in Crescendo. Guitar solos are wicked and played with a tactical finesse of walking on the fine edge of a blade and not being afraid to bleed. Besides thrash shredding, there are also some fine melodic metal influences like in half ballad In Deepest Black being one of the highlights of the record, with such awesome lyrics, melody and vocal work, main and harmonies. I also must mention Sledgehammer Justice and Forgotten Memories as being my favorites and standouts epic songs, but whole material is just fantastic.
