This is
the debut album from the recently formed Greek blackened death/thrash band Diavolos. The band is comprised of Tasos
Danazoglou (formally of Electric Wizard)
on vocals, Nik
Angelopoulos and Bill El providing guitar work, Taneli Jarva on bass and K.
Savvi on drums.
This album
originally escaped my radar upon its release late last year, but thankfully it
came to my attention in a hail of bullet belts and leather. This album has a
perfect sound that pays homage to early Slayer,
early Sodom, Power From Hell, Sarcofago
and even Nunslaughter. The band’s
sound is often crushingly fast and powerful, and sometimes slow and purposeful,
however it is constantly backed by the raw rasping vocals of Tasos Danazoglou,
chainsaw guitars and machine gun drum work.
In just 32
minutes this album tears out your eardrums, reaches into your head and replaces
your brain with a filth driven, speed spewing engine of absolute evil. This is
a perfect album for fans of the golden age of early black, death and thrash who
want to relive the moshing glory of old. I cannot recommend this album highly enough.
Support the band, buy their fucking music!
It damn sure is!
