Creation Of Death - Purify Your Soul (1991)

Another top quality Christan thrash metal act, although not sure if the label is ever relevant, either way these type of bands - Believer, etc - always churning out heavy and fast metal. 'Purify...' is the bands only record, the four-piece bridging the gap between technical thrash and tepid death metal. This is a cracking little record boasting a Possessed style of thrasdh, particularly in the vocals, whilst Slayer springs to mind with those energetic solos from Aras and Litza. Fans of Polish act Turbo may be interested to know that Creation Of Death were pretty much formed from ther ashes of Turbo but these guys are far more accomplished. When I mention death metal, don't expect anything pounding, this is more Sepuktura inspired with those riffs and vocals, especially on 'nameless Forever' and the speedy 'You Aren't Possessed Yet.' Although lyrically this is a little naive, Creation Of Death a decent little band, 'Psalm 69' a prime example of their ability, just a shame it never lasted. 6.5/10
