One couldn't form a thrash band like this today if they tried! Looking back, and not just the cover, Evil Sinner seem almost cheesy and amateurish, and yet just to think these guys were probably formed with some kind of sincerity. Behind the denim and mullet hair there's a basement Metallica or even a dodgy, low-budget Megadeth style of thrash. Opener, wonderfully titled, 'Thrashers', is endearing in its naivety, the drums lost in the mix, vocally mundane, and at times hilarious in its ability to thrash. 'Mosh (Part One)' and 'The Gang' symbolise the teenage rebel attitude of the late '80s although I doubt many people would have heard these voices. This type of obscure metal is always worth digging out but there's never enough in the locker for it to last beyond half a spin.Saturday 26 February 2011
