Revenge - Scum.Collapse.Eradication

Revenge are a war metal band, hailing from Edmonton, AB, Canada. If you're familiar with war metal, you'll know that it's extremely "love-it-or-hate-it" kinda stuff. If you're not, it's a small sub-genre of black metal that's characterized by even noiser/rawer guitars, blastbeats, and inhuman gurgling/screaming. Take a wild fucking guess as to what the lyrical themes are.

Anyways, if you're not a fan of Revenge, this album certainly isn't going to change your opinion on them. However, if you are -- or if you're on the fence about them -- S.C.E is worth checking out. One thing I really admire about this band is that every time they release a new album, they manage to retain their core sound while still bringing something new to the mix. It definitely retains the take-no-prisoners Revenge approach to the music, but there's a lot more song structure and musicianship on display here than previous releases. There's copies of this still available at HHR and NWN! on digital and analog formats, so grab one while you can!
