Cool songs: Let the war begin, Burn the witches
Blood thirsty demons are coming from Italy, and were born in 1997. Let the war begin is their second full length album, and as band is saying about them self, they are playing horror metal. But its not mean that we hear here some rich orchestrations, connected with sharp guitars, keyboards and solemn climate (which to be honest I was expect). Its rather meaning some old school , coming from 80s maybe even early 90s, climate reminding Mercyful fate and Black Sabbath (for example track titled I am the evil). For me theres almost nothing in this music that could be said its horror kind. I think its rather simple heavy metal mixed with some doom Sabbath riffs. You know, I have nothing against that type of music, but it was good twenty, maybe fifteen years ago, and these guys didnt put anything new into it. Of course that shouldnt stop anyone who is not expecting revolutions in style created by Black Sabbath. If this old simply music is still reason that your blood circulation is little faster, you definitely should give a try Blood thirsty demons. All in all, theres a few really good riffs, drums are well constructed, and bass parts are really good, the same as solo parts. Its produced, and sounds like it should. Everything is on right place. Everything except on thing, vocals. I dont want to be unfair or cruel, but what is doing this man, is honestly annoying. Sorry buddy, but have you ever heard yourself? Almost all the time when I was trying go deeper into this music, something stops me fast, and that was those vocals. Very often vocals part lines have just nothing to do with rest of music, and its come out just like some screams of drunk man. And what is even worse, the vocalist uses extremely unfitting and annoying tone of voice. In conclusion, to music we say yes, to vocals (with small exceptions) we definitely say no.
