Bang Bang Firecracker – Welcome To The Slaughterhouse
(S/R – 2018)
So from the opening section you assume you are in for a calming chilled CD if that classical piano led melody is anything to go by... wrong... this is a CD jammed packed with old school metal that goes into the territory of acts like Anthrax, Megadeth & Metallica and more...
Like that famous curly haired Gibson Guitarist they also come from Stoke On Trent with the CD line-up comprising of Kieron 'K' Berry (Guitars/Vocals); Marcus Wrench (Bass) & Charlie Cooper (Drums) who will vibrate your tabs and speakers respectively.
Highlights on here include the gutsy 'n' moody but vibrant 'All Thriller No Filler'; the anthemic title track 'Welcome To The Slaughterhouse'; the pumping moshpit monster that is 'Witchproof' where those Stormshadow Guitars are played to the max! And yeah, we are well and truly 'Hellbent For Pleasure' too, heaven sent or not!
One to wake the town up with!
7/10
