UMUR
"When the Hammer Strikes......The Exterminator Arrives!!!" is a split single release by Norwegian thrash metal act Deathhammer and Spanish blackened thrash metal act Körgull the Exterminator. The split was released in October 2011 by Duplicate Records. It´s limited to 500 copies on black 7" vinyl in foldout cover.

The split features two tracks by Deathhammer and two tracks by Körgull the Exterminator distributed over 12:56 minutes of playing time and if you hadn´t smelled the rat after looking at the cover artwork it´ll become obvious right of the bat, that we´re dealing with a filthy, raw and old school thrash metal release when listening to the music. The two Deathhammer tracks sound like they were recorded in a rehearsal room. Lo-fi sound quality and filthy, raw and simple old school thrash metal is what you´ll be exposed to. The sound quality is slightly more professional on the two tracks by Körgull the Exterminator but we´re still in raw demo quality territory. Compared to the Deathhammer tracks the two tracks by Körgull the Exterminator take on a more blackened tone. The music is still old school thrash metal at it´s core though.

We´re not exactly talking brilliant musicianship or especially clever or original compositions, but there´s no denying that the savage delivery and passionate performance make up for some of that. I found myself enjoying this quite a bit and I think a 3 star rating is fair.
