│║ Description : ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ Only two years after their last effort, Exciter ║ │
│║ return with this album. Though I did enjoy ║ │
│║ Thrash Speed Burn, I was worried this was going ║ │
│║ to be too much of the same and get dull. ║ │
│║ Fortunately this doesn't seem to be the case, in ║ │
│║ fact it's surprisingly the most refreshing album ║ │
│║ I've heard from them in a while! ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ Production is typical of Exciter, that is, very ║ │
│║ raw. Some might see this as a negative, but ║ │
│║ honestly I think a raw producion is always what ║ │
│║ helped the appeal of Exciter's sound: dirty in ║ │
│║ your face thrash metal! I do wish the vocals ║ │
│║ were a little higher in the mix as they're just ║ │
│║ a bit muffled. And on that note, the vocals are ║ │
│║ fantastic! Kenny Winters was a decent vocalist ║ │
│║ on the last album, but this time around he ║ │
│║ sounds like an extremely pissed off David Wayne ║ │
│║ which works great! ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ The songs are basically your standard Exciter ║ │
│║ mix of songs you've come to expect: primarily ║ │
│║ all out thrash, but also a few slower moments. ║ │
│║ The title track kind of gets off on the wrong ║ │
│║ foot as to me it doesn't stand out as much as ║ │
│║ the rest of the album. However the next three ║ │
│║ songs all are fantastic speed metal songs, my ║ │
│║ favorite being Dungeon Descendents: this song ║ │
│║ kills! ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ Power and Domination is the slower Sabbath ║ │
│║ influenced track of the album that Exciter ║ │
│║ always seems to have and it's a pretty good one, ║ │
│║ though nothing too outstanding. Hellfire picks ║ │
│║ the pace right back up and is another favorite ║ │
│║ of mine, definitely one of the more memorable ║ │
│║ riffs of the album. Demented Prisoners is the ║ │
│║ song that reminds me most of classic Exciter; ║ │
│║ Violence and Force really comes to mind when I ║ │
│║ listen to it. ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ Slaughtered In Vain kicks off with a nice bass ║ │
│║ intro however the main riff sounds a bit too ║ │
│║ similar to the title track of the last album. ║ │
│║ Not a bad song at all though, and the chorus ║ │
│║ gives it a unique enough feel. Finally, album ║ │
│║ closer Skullbreaker kicks up the tempo even more ║ │
│║ and eliminates everything in its path. This song ║ │
│║ is another favorite of mine and possibly my top ║ │
│║ track of the album: they really outdid ║ │
│║ themselves with this song. After a minute of ║ │
│║ silence there's also an unaccompanied guitar ║ │
│║ solo, not necessary but still cool hearing John ║ │
│║ Ricci show off a bit. ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ All in all, this is what you'd expect in an ║ │
│║ Exciter album: classic thrash metal at its ║ │
│║ rawest. While not as necessary to pick up as ║ │
│║ their first three, Death Machine is still a ║ │
│║ worthy addition to any collection and probably ║ │
│║ their best album since the band reformed. ║ │
