Purge The Bastards

2019 release. The Chilean purveyors of unadulterated steel are back with their fourth full-length album. Powerful riffs, driving guitars, relentless, galloping drumming and solid songwriting with well thought-out arrangements is what they offer. The vocals are quite versatile and give the band a sharper edge and a more personal character. For some, the high-pitched screams might be a bit too quirky, but there's a good chance old school metalheads will dig them, especially if they like the voices of very young Bobby Blitz, Gerrit Mutz, Jason Conde-Houston or Quimby Earthquake Lewis, but also of Jutta Weinhold. The band continues to show their inspiration by both German heavy/speed metal from the early/mid '80s and US power metal, this time also throwing in some more classic Maiden-esque patterns for a good measure. This is metal as pure as can be!
