DeathinitioN/Art Of Manipulation/2013 EP Review


  DeathinitioN  are  a  band  from  Poland  that  plays  an  old  school  form  of  thrash  metal  and  this  is  a  review  of  their  self  released  2013  ep  "Art  Of  Manipulation".

  The  ep  starts  out  with  heavy  thrash  guitar  and  bass  riffs  along  with  drums  which  leads  up  to  aggressive  yet  melodic  vocals  and  when  leads  are  added  into  the  music  they  bring  a  technical  feeling  to  the  recording.

  As  the ep  continues  it  gets  more  melodic  while  also  remaining  true  to  an  old  school  thrash  sound  and  you  can  hear  elements  on  this  record  that  would  be  perfect  for  a  mosh  pit  or  a  metal  drinking  party  and  after  awhile  clean  playing  is  added  into  the  music  briefly.

  With  this  ep  DeathinitioN  bring  back  an  old  school  form  of  thrash  that  is  perfect  for  moshing  while  also  having  a  great  amount  of  melody  and  their  approach  to  mosh  style  thrash  is  more  in  the  European  than  American  direction.

  Song  lyrics  cover  party,  social  issues  and  anti  religion  themes  along  with  the  last  song  being  written  in  Polish,  while  the  production  has  a  very  strong,  powerful,  heavy  and  old  school  sound  for  being  a  self  released  recording  where  you  can  hear  all  of  the  musical  instruments  that  are  present  on  this  ep.

  In  my  opinion  DeathinitioN  are  a  very  great  sounding  old  school  thrash  metal  band  and  if  you  are  a  fan  of  this  musical  genre,  you  should  check  out  this  ep.  RECOMMENDED  TRACKS  INCLUDE  "My  Personal  Maniac  Fear"  adn  "Priest".  8/5  out  of  10.

  1. What's the difference between European and American way of moshing?

  2. The way they mosh is the same, I was saying the band was closer to European thrash than American, when I think American I think Exodus and that style, but I enjoy that style as well
