UMUR
"MisleD 2013 Re-recorded" is an EP release by Greek technical/progressive death/thrash metal act Acid Death. The EP was independently released in March 2013. It bridges the gap between the band´s third and fourth full-length studio albums "Eidolon (2012)" and "Hall of Mirrors (2015)". As the title of the EP suggests this is a re-recording of most of Acid Death´s material from the 1994 "Misled/Deformed Beyond Belief" split release with Avulsed plus the title track from the 1992 ""Balance of Power"" EP.

The music style is technical death metal in the old school end of the scale. Think late 80s/early 90s Death and maybe the Italians in Sadist, and you´re halfway there. Acid Death are a well playing unit and the snarling growling vocals are delivered with the right amount of caustic aggression and conviction. If you´re familiar with the musical direction of the material on "Eidolon (2012)" it´s not surprising that Acid Death chose to re-record material from the early part of their career, as there are many similarities between the material on "Eidolon (2012)" and the material featured on "MisleD 2013 Re-recorded". Gone are the jazz/fusion influences and odd experimental ideas from the late 90s/early 00s albums.

"MisleD 2013 Re-recorded" features a powerful, raw, and well sounding production, which suits the material well. The material could have been a little more memorable but it´s a minor issue and overall the EP is a quality technical daeth metal release and a 3.5 star (70%) rating is deserved.
