SAWTHIS - EGOD
INDEPENDENT
Metal To Infinity
More
and more bands are mixing genres nowadays. It’s explainable because it’s
becoming harder and harder to be original. After all Heavy Metal is already at
least forty years old and meanwhile thousands and thousands of bands have
released even more albums. The scène is so big and the Metal virus is spread so
worldwide that it is even impossible to know every band. Every country has
it’s bands and the original bands mainly became the most famous ones.
Sawthis
is an Italian modern Metal band, mixing Thrash with some Hardcore and Death
Metal. This is the band’s fourth effort and I can’t imagine I’ve heard
something from them before. This isn’t in particular my kind of music, mostly
this is beyond my personal edges. The aggression is a strong point but for some
reasons it’s too much to me, more than I can handle when we talk about the
amusement in music. It’s great that Sawthis mixes it with melodic lines but no…
Groovy Post-Thrash is not my cup of tea.
Nevertheless
I need to be objective as a reviewer and I am quite sure youngsters amongst us
will adore this release. In its style this is good and these five musicians know
how to write good songs. Some choruses and refrains keep on playing in the mind
but my problem is that I don’t always want them to find a place in my brains.
It makes it so dam difficult to write a review about this CD. An overdose of
aggression is available and Sawthis plays varied Metal, musical wise and vocal
wise.
If
you’re into aggressive modern Metal than Sawthis must be something to look for.
Fans of Shadows Fall, Soulfly and Machine Head will like this one.
