After hearing this album, I realized that I haven't listened to this band enough over the years. I have two of their earlier releases posted here, but I missed their last disc, even though CarlG promoted it back at the time it was released. I just never got around to listening to it until recently. Actually, after listening to this disc, I immediately wanted to hear more from these guys.

I completely dropped the ball on this disc. I mean, I was aware of it, but never actually got around to listening to it until just now. This is really good for my tastes, as is all of their material, it seems. If you missed out on this, as I did, then give it a shot now.

Back in 2014, when I heard Body Harvest's debut, Futile Creation, I was immediately impressed by their brand of death metal, but for some reason, I didn't pay as much attention to this album. It is not that this is a bad album; it's not, but I guess there has been too much death and not enough life to enjoy it all. Sadly, these guys split up following this release.

Originally formed in 1990, and after 2 early albums, which I have not listened to, the band split up in 96. The original 3 members reformed in 2022, and then in 2024, they released their first new album in over 2 decades, and it is pretty damn good for my tastes.

When I first heard this band back in 2015, on their debut Above the Unworthy, I really liked them, but for some reason, I kinda lost interest in their next album. I am back on them now. I like this newest release a lot, as it seems more accessible to me.

Back in the early 2000s, I was very much into Mors Principium Est, and would even hazard to say that their first 2 LPs should be considered minor classics for the time period. However, as time passed, I drifted away from their style and into heavier territory, but when I heard this new album a while back, it caught my attention, and maybe it will catch yours as well.

This is an interesting album to me. The band has been active since 2008 with 3 EPs and a demo to their credit, and this is their first LP. These Finns have skillz and talent to spare, and they are labeled as thrash metal, but it doesn't have the grittiness that I want to hear in thrash. To me, this is basically heavy metal with some velocity, and I like it, but I wish that it were heavier at times.

I have to admit I haven't listened to this band a lot over the years, even though I have their 2004 release posted here, I hadn't paid much attention beyond that album. When I heard this new disc (first one in 19 years), I was pleasantly surprised, so now I am digging into some of their other albums as well.

Here is another cool speed thrash release in 2025 from a Colombian band. This isn't as raw and gritty as I would typically prefer from this genre, but very entertaining for me nonetheless.
