Some
times I am really pissed off at some bands that are ignorant
when they don't think about their past and how you have helped
them, even if it was a little help or a bigger one. I think
it is the worst thing to do from the group side. Anyway Merendine
Atomiche comes from Italy and they sent us a bulk CD-R
with their newest album titled "Raw".
I
knew the guys from their previous album which was released
a couple of years ago. Actually Merendine Atomiche
started back in 1995 and so far they have released a demo
CD, a mini CD and their debut work.
First
of all here we have eleven new tracks and more than forty
five minutes of pure heavy / thrash metal with a modern air
and some modern metal touches too. Also the band had Jack
Frost from Seven Witches in order to produce
this album so at least we will have a massive production and
a very good sound too.
Now
back to the music, the band is really aggressive and it seems
through their album that they have a lot of energy and I want
to have the chance in the future to see one of their live
shows.
Their
compositions are well written with some very interesting elements
inside their music. They combine heavy and thrash metal well
and with their personal touch we have a very impressive result.
I
am sure fans from Testament and Megadeth
will adore the stuff from Merendine Atomiche. The thing
that I like from this band is the fact that personally I see
the progress that they have done from their previous work.
