Major Metal with an overload of attitude

Horns up and heads down fir a full body charge of metal. GFK take no prisoners, ask no questions, just shoot from the hip. This is for “very metal” lovers as its barrage of noise hits you like an express train. If you are not a metal fan then forget it, only a true heavy metal lover will be able to get their heads around this album.

‘The end of our contribution to modern slavery’, ‘Breaking basic antiracism’ and ‘Globaliverne’ merge into each other with a very hard-hitting sound. Whereas with ‘Time and space compression’ you suddenly find yourself in another number, no less ruthless in its manner, but definitely different- this one has a most disturbing ending.

‘Mathew Sheppard, Carlos Giuliani…’, ‘Power is indivisible, until you provoke it’ and ‘Todo para todos’ are war zones of sound, whilst ‘Prison of life’ makes you think for a few seconds that something softer is about to arrive, but no; yet another wall of sound hits you.

‘Religious Icons are Creations of Men’ has a sound more like rock than its predecessors, but is still metallic mayhem. Finally ‘Direct Actions is more than wearing a Che Guevara Shirt’ is a number with an obvious start and finish, threaded through with a strong political message- has moral metal arrived?
