Ever the fount of metallic goodness, this year Sweden gives us The Generals: four musical tough guys (one of them’s named a very Viking Hednar) whose sound straddles thrash metal’s intensity and the peculiar death n’ roll subgenre. Kicking the door down on this oddly named “Stand Up Straight” debut is the no-bullshit opener “Blessing In Disguise” that introduces the listener to the band’s penchant for solid riffs and battering percussion corsetted in melody.
