ACID DEATH PRIMAL ENERGIES reviews

Specialists/collaborators reviews

UMUR
"Primal Energies" is the 5th full-length studio album by Greek technical/progressive death/thrash metal act Acid Death. The album was released through 7Hard Records in March 2019. It´s the successor to "Hall of Mirrors" from 2015 and features the exact same four-piece lineup who recorded the predecessor.

Stylistically Acid Death pretty much continue in the same technically well played death/thrash metal style on "Primal Energies" as they also performed on "Hall of Mirrors". They are a well playing unit, the sound production is crisp, detailed, and powerful, and lead vocalist/bassist Savvas Betinis performs his raw semi-growling vocals with conviction.

Alhough Acid Death are a relatively seasoned act, having formed in 1989 and having released albums in the 90s, they don´t have many old school death metal elements in their sound, which is primarely a more contemporary technical death metal style (although there are nods towards early 90s technical death/thrash metal artists like Death and Sadist in the music). It´s predominantly mid-paced and often features heavy groove laden riffs and rhythms, but also intriguing lead guitar work and other interesting elements. It´s not remarkable or especially unique sounding music, but it´s solid and overall of a good quality. A 3 - 3.5 star (65%) rating is warranted.
