Another cool thrash band from Italy!

With a couple of ounces of Pantera and Machine Head and then a spoonful of metalcore the Lamb of God way, the five Italians tear competently through nine tight and well-wrought pieces of heaviness.

Singer Steph has one of the better thrash voices I’ve come across recently and that is something a band should value dearly. There are tons of singers – but not too many with a distinct style that is at the same time bearable to listen to. There are loads of bands who play just as well as a band like WitHate, but the quality of the singer makes the difference in the long run.

Spot on – excellent album! A must-try for fans of modern thrash metal. A thrash band that has no less than two harmonica solos on the debut album deserves at least two minutes of your attention…
