Bulldozer - The Final Separation (1986)


Deemed 'speed metal' at the time, this is more Venom-inspired menace and leathery spit from Italy's finest sweaty and oiled cavemen. Not quite as dark as 'Day Of wrath', this album has numerous peculiar moments, 'Sex Symbol Bullshit', and the punky 'Don Andras', whilst 'Ride Hard Die Fast' is pure Motorhead dirt, and 'The Cave' horrifying Euro-thrash at its grubbiest. You know what to expect with Bulldozer in a way...it's fun, but somehow still as greasy as a motorbike chain and will always breathe fire when required, in other words, a reliable dragon if you ever need one for a trip to Hell.

7/10
