ANIHILATED - THE ULTIMATE DESECRATION


BRITISH SLAYER-ESQUE THRASH.

I received a package from Anihilated about ten years ago (2004?) and I said that I was going to review their albums. But Instead took the site offline so I never published any review of Anihilated's The Ultimate Desecration until now in 2014.

 I have spun the album a few more times and I think the music is quite good. It's a very rhythmic and crunchy thrash album. Reminding me a lot of late eighties Slayer minus some aggression and speed. The Ultimate Desecration is Anihilated's sophomore studio album and it was released in 1989. The album contains some nice tempo changes.

The vocals by Simon Cobb are ferocious and evil-sounding, he does his job without excelling. The album is very guitardriven, It's some fine blue collar chugga-chugga thrash from the first second to the last. The solos are fast and and everyone who is into Slayer or curious of British thrash metal, then this album might be for you. The Ultimate Desecration has that raw late 80's sound. I wouldn't call it a masterpiece or an album that you need in your life but it's not garbage either. It's slightly above average sounding Slayer-esque thrash.
