I know nothing of this band but got pulled in by the b-movie artwork, and what a pleasant surprise the music was too. Horrific play a kind of rock 'n' roll thrash if that makes sense! It certainly makes for interesting listening. '...At Midnight' borrows Motley Crue's 'Live Wire' riff but adds a thrash edge and hellish vocals, but again, always intriguing. 'Metal Cemetery' has a cool metal solo and gargled vocals splattered over the top whilst 'Death Rock' is doom 'n' roll!!
This will appeal to fans of thrash and hopefully just metal fans even if the vocals are quite extreme, but like Acid Witch before, although sounding nothing like each other, there's something quite thrilling about hearing a combined set of styles. I was expecting something rather cheesy, but this is quite refreshing in its approach.
7/10
