A riff catches your ear, a lyric that you'll remember, a double bass that hits you in just the right spot. It feels familiar. It's a good feeling. And you rock out. Terror is one of those bands.
With the guitar power of Carry On and vocals from the guy who fronted Buried Alive and Despair, you can expect greatness straight out of the box. The vocals are urgent and angry, but still lucid enough to make them discernible even if you don't have the lyrics in front of you. The drums are nothing spectacular, but the guitar work makes up for it, and the drums end up blending nicely behind that. There are plenty of sing alongs, breakdowns, 2-steps and circle pit opportunities. All the things you'd want to expect from a good hardcore band.
I like the artwork. Black and white. Live photos. Dirty and grungy looking. Cool logo. Good with me.
Go pick this one up and learn the words. The CD is short, under 20 minutes. Good thing, cause by the time it's over, I won't be surprised if you're all moshed out.
