This is a review of a split album between Sweden/Indonesia's Nattmaran and Finland's Terror Cross called "Rise Of The Nightmare Terror" which will be released in November by Wise Blood Records and we will start off the review with Nattmaran a band that plays a mixture of black, thrash, speed metal and punk.
Their side of the split starts out with a very heavy, melodic and old school speed metal style while the faster sections of the songs also add in a decent amount of blast beats. Vocals bring in a mixture of power/thrash style singing, black metal screams and death emtal growls and most of the music is heavily rooted in t he 80's era.
When guitar solos and leads are utilized they are also done in a very melodic yet old school style along with the music also capturing the raw energy of punk rock at times. The songs also add in a decent mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts and there side of the split closes with a cover of Bathory's "Conspiracy With Satan". The production sounds very professional while t he lyrics cover serial killers and burning witches.
In my opinion Nattmaran are a very great sounding mixture of black, thrash, speed metal and punk and if you are a fan of those musical genres, you should check out this b and. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Erupting In Violence" and "Punished by Death".
Next up is Terror Cross a band that plays a mixture of black, thrash metal and punk.
Their side of the split starts out with a very hard and heavy sound while the vocals are mostly black metal screams as well as being very heavily influenced by both the first and second wave era's of the genre and when guitar solos and leads are utilized they also remain true to an old school style.
At times the music also captures the raw energy of punk rock along with the songs also adding in a great amount of thrash metal elements. Melodies are also added into some of the guitar riffing as well as the faster sections of the songs also adding in a decent amount of blast beats and their side of the split closes with a cover of Manowar's "Gloves Of Metal". The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover death, sex, murder and metal themes.
In my opinion Terror Cross are a very great sounding mixture of black, thrash metal and punk and if you are a fan of those musical genres, you should check out this band. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Fornication And Murder" and "Sexual".
In conclusion I feel this is a very great sounding split and I would recommend it to all fans of black, thrash, speed metal and punk. 8 out of 10.
