This is a review of a split ep between Italy's Bunker 66 and Hellcrash called "Hell & Sulphur" which will be released on march 25th by Dying Victims Productions and we will start off the review with Bunker 66 who return with a blackened thrash metal style.
Their side of the split starts out with some thrash influenced riffing along with the riffs also adding in a decent amount of melody. Vocals a re mostly black metal screams that mix both the 1st and 2nd wave era's together. Back up vocals can also be heard at times as well as the faster sections of the songs also adding in a small amount of blast beats, all of the musical instruments also have a very powerful sound to t hem and the solos and leads also stick to more of an early 80's style. The production sounds very old school while the lyrics cover nuclear war themes.
In my opinion this is another great sounding track from Bunker 66 and if you are a fan of blackened thrash metal, you should check out their side of the split.
Next up is Hellcrash who return with their blackened style of speed metal.
Their side of the split starts out with with some elements of thrash metal while the vocals bring in more of a first wave black metal style along with some demonic voices. Most of the music is also very heavily rooted in the 80's era as well as some melodies also being added into some of the guitar riffing, when guitar solos and leads are utilized they are also done in a retro style. The production sounds very old school and the lyrics cover apocalyptic themes.
In my opinion this is another great sounding track from Hellcrash and if you are a fan of blackened speed metal, you should check out their side of the split.
In conclusion I feel this is a very great sounding split and i would recommend it to all fans of blackened thrash and speed metal. 8 out of 10.
