Today’s review is of Spanish Thrash Metal band Rancor’s upcoming new album, out on June 14th.
This release offers some old-school American-inspired Thrash combined with elements of Speed Metal and soaring melodies that remind more of Heavy Metal. This mix in which they’re veterans is given cohesion by a good vocal performance that lies in between their styles.
Their adding of catchy melodies also gives an epic side to the otherwise straightforward and fun approach of the songs. There’s also a notable presence of bass, complimenting everything well and giving the whole more depth. In general, these tracks seem ideal for live performances, and they sound very mosh-friendly. My personal highlights are “Daggers In The Chest” and “Evade”.
I recommend this album to fans of Speed Metal and American Thrash Metal. My rating is of 8,5/10.
