Sacral Rage
– Deadly Bits Of Iron Fragments [EP, 2013]
Release
Date: 23rd February, 2013
Sacral Rage
was formed in late 2011, from Vaggelis (drums), Dimitris (vocals), Marios
(guitars) and Spyros (bass) and they’re heavusly (pun intended) influenced by
such bands as Agent Steel, Jag Panzer, Vicious Rumours, Annihilator, etc. After
their first and very promising 2-track promo which came out last year, Sacral
Rage is back with their first EP named “Deadly Bits Of Iron Fragments”. A
little less than 30 minutes of high-quality speed/heavy metal unfolds in this
EP, which will be released by Eat Metal Records in late February. Having heard
a lot of albums from the majority of Greek bands around, I can definitely say
that this EP is definitely among the most perfectly executed Greek
speed/heavy/power metal EP’s ever. Usually such efforts lack something, from
vocal lines to guitars, or generally creativity. And I’m getting really tired
of listening to more and more uninspired bands nowadays. One can tell from the
very beginning that this EP is not among those. The guitars are
top-of-the-league, from riffs to solos, from fills to harmonies, blending and
backing up perfectly the speed with the melody. The vocals balance a lot from
early Panzer and Priest to early Helloween, but they actually stand out on
their own without being just another bad copy of either one of those bands.
What I also like is that –unlike many bands with high pitched vocals- the bass
and drums have a big role in the EP as well. Generally this is a very good
release for fans of the old US
Hint: Go
check a live show of Sacral Rage, they kick serious ass.
