UMUR
"Within Suffering" is the debut full-length studio album by Canadian, Ontario based thrash metal act Overthrow. The album was released through Epidemic Records in 1990. Overthrow was a relatively shortlived act forming in 1987 and disbanding in 1991 after releasing the 1989 "Bodily Domination" demo and "Within Suffering".

Stylistically the 9 tracks on the 31:11 minutes long album (later reissues feature the tracks from the "Bodily Domination" demo and some good quality live recordings) are brutal and aggressive sounding thrash metal (in some cases touching death/thrash territory). "Within Suffering" was recorded at Morrisound Studios in Tampa, Florida with producer Scott Burns and not surprisingly the album features a dark and heavy sounding production further enhancing the link to death metal. This is predominantly a thrash metal release though, it´s just in the more dark, brutal, and aggressive end of the scale.

While the tempo is mostly furiously fast-paced, Overthrow also play mid-paced heavy riffs and rhythms, which help the album appear a little more diverse. The vocals are raw and angry sounding rabid dog snarling, and perfect for the style. In addition to the many fast-paced brutal thrash metal riffs and rhythms the music also features some well performed screaming guitar solos. Artists like Demolition Hammer and Sadus are valid references (and artists like Devastation, Gammacide, and 1986-Dark Angel), although "Within Suffering" is maybe slightly more traditional thrash metal styled.

Upon conclusion "Within Suffering" is a high quality thrash metal release in the brutal end of the spectrum, and fans of aggressive death/thrash are the target audience. A little more variation between tracks wouldn´t have hurt, but other than that this is through and through a good quality release and a 3.5 star (70%) rating is deserved.
