DEATHCHAIN „Deaththrash Assault”
Deaththrash Assault is a most fitting album title for bullet-belted metallers, DeathChain because these Fins play a hybrid style of death metal and thrash akin to Swedish bands like THE CROWN, DEFLEASHED, SWORDMASTER, and WITCHERY. Upon first listen, it is easy to assume this group is from Sweden.

This is a split cd of two of Ohios best Death /Thrash bands of the past decade, Spawn of Satan, who is fronted by Jim Satanic (formerly Jim Sadist of Nunslaughter) and Bloodsick who have disbanded and formed Soulless. The first five tracks are from Spawn and are the first official releases from a band that has been Thrashin' and growling old school Death for over ten years.
THREAT SIGNAL „Under Reprisal”
Huh? Whats that I hear in the distance? A familiar sound; comes around on its yearly orbit professing to destroy all in its path yep thats it straight out of Donzdorf Germany, a massive hulking beast they call the Hype Machine. All props to the guys at Nuclear Blast, they do enormous work in the name of metal and I love them dearly.
ONE MAN ARMY AND THE UNDEAD QUARTET „21st Century Killing Machine”
Of all the positives that could/have been written about Swedens The Crown (RIP), vocalist Johan Lindstrand was always the major draw card as far as I was concerned. I was mightily disappointed when he was replaced by Tompa Lindberg for the Crowned in Terror album.
BLOODRIDE „Bloodridden Disease”
The Finns from BLOODRIDE create thrash metal which is heavy-duty of death metal traces. They are inspire by accomplishments of such famous bands like e.g.
BLOODRIDE „Bloodridden Disease”

RUMPELSTILTSKIN GRINDER „Buried in the Front Yard”
With one of the weirdest names in metal, Pennsylvanias Rumpelstiltskin Grinder (from here on known as RsG) have unleased their debut full length on the mighty Relapse label. Having not heard these guys before, I was open to anything that this might throw at me with a name as convoluted as theirs and an album entitled Buried in the Front Yard adjectives such as Gore and Grind were the most obvious descriptions that came to mind.
LIGHT THIS CITY „Remains of the Gods”
Cool Songs: The Hunt, The Static Masses, Remains of the Gods, The Last Catastrophe, Obituary.
