UMUR
"Get Rude" is the first demo recording by US, Louisiana based thrash/groove metal act Exhorder. The demo was recorded in September 1986 at Stonee's, New Orleans, Louisiana, and released shortly after that. Originally on cassette tape.

The material sounds like it was recorded live in the studio as it features a lo-fi and authentic sounding production. I´d be surprised to learn if there are any overdubs on this recording. Exhorder play some pretty fast-paced and aggressive thrash metal on this demo but sometimes they play mid-paced and heavy grooves too. Three of the tracks from the demo would also be included on Exhorder´s second demo "Slaughter in the Vatican" (1987) and all three of them would eventually also be re-recorded and incluced on Exhorder´s debut full-length studio album also titled "Slaughter in the Vatican" (1990). The remaining songs on the six tracks, 22:47 minutes long demo are exclusive to this release.

Considering that this is basically a live in the studio recording it´s great to hear how well playing Exhorder were already this early on. This is pretty sharp and precise playing. Kyle Thomas has a raw snarling delivery which is pretty aggressive. Upon conclusion this is an interesting release, which is slightly marred by the lo-fi sound production values. A 2.5 - 3 star (55%) rating is warranted.
