Fratricide - Fratricide
Review by Renier Putter
Fratricide's self-titled debut album is a powerful and intense offering that showcases the band's skillful musicianship and unrelenting energy. From the opening track "Blood on the Battlefield" to the final notes of "Fratricide," the album is a non-stop barrage of heavy riffs, thundering drums, and searing vocals.
The band's sound is firmly rooted in classic thrash metal, but they also incorporate elements of death metal, hardcore, and punk into their music. This results in a sound that is both aggressive and dynamic, with plenty of tempo changes and intricate guitar work.
Lyrically, the album deals with themes of war, violence, and betrayal, as the title suggests. The band's uncompromising approach to these themes is evident in tracks like "Betrayal of Brothers" and "The Butcher's Blade," which pull no punches in their descriptions of the horrors of war.
