Acid Mass are a solo project from Cincinnati, Ohio that plays a blackened form of thrash metal and this is a review of their 2024 album "Worship" which will be released in August as a joint effort between Morbid And Miserable, Motorpunk and Vicious Witch Records.
A horror movie orientated sound starts off the album before going into more of a heavier and melodic direction. Elements of thrash metal are also utilized quite a bit throughout the recording while the vocals bring in more of a first wave black metal style and at times the music captures the raw energy of punk rock.
Most of the music is very heavily rooted in the 80's while also being very modern at the same time. When guitar solos and leads are utilized they are done in more of an old school extreme metal style along with all of the musical instruments also having a very powerful sound to them.
The songs also add in a good mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts, some of the riffing also shows an influence of speed metal and some of the tracks also add in session work from members of Wraith, Savage Master, Hellripper and Faithxtractor as well as one track also being an instrumental.. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover darkness, death and violence themes.
In my opinion Acid Mass are a very great sounding blackened thrash metal solo project and if you are a fan of this musical genre, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "War Machine" "Hell From Above" and "Dying Breath". 8 out of 10.
