So, I decided it was time a got a couple of Tankcrimes release reviews out to you. Obsessor is a mysterious metallic hardcore punk solo project, from Richmond, Virginia USA. Sick Salvation has been released as a two track cassette single. This is the second tape that's been released so far by Obsessor, but more are on the way.
Tracklist:-
1. Sick Salvation
2. The Demon
Sick Salvation is a thrash inspired hardcore track, with
audible growls and buzzsaw guitar. It’s hard to imagine that one person
recorded this! There are smatterings of Slayer and Celtic Frost influences
within the music, it's evil but you can still bang your head to it. It doesn’t
take itself too seriously and that's what’s great fun about it.
Second track The Demon has a more straightforward song
structure, but is just as fun. It's got a distinctly old school feel to it,
bringing back the days when thrash and black metal bands co-existed and when
punk was dangerous. This would be awesome live. The guitar work in the song is
brilliant and gives it a great melodic edge.
