│║ Description :                                                  ║ │
│║                                                                ║ │
│║   There was a fair amount of hype surrounding this Brazilian   ║ │
│║   trio known as Nervosa, some speculating that it arrived      ║ │
│║   based on attributes apart from their musical abilities and   ║ │
│║   vicious stylistic demeanor. While there may have been        ║ │
│║   something to the initial hype leading up to the realize of   ║ │
│║   Victim Of Yourself that could maybe be justified on these    ║ │
│║   grounds, the studio work that came along with the fairly     ║ │
│║   inventive yet somewhat cliche imagery on the album art       ║ │
│║   tells a very different story, as did like their various      ║ │
│║   live performances a bit earlier on the decade. This is a     ║ │
│║   band that exemplifies the sort of tight togetherness and     ║ │
│║   raw vitality that was inherent in the early days of          ║ │
│║   Germany's reputed thrash trios Sodom and Destruction, and    ║ │
│║   their stylistic tendencies largely reflect the same spirit   ║ │
│║   of where said bands were during the late 1980s, along with   ║ │
│║   some of the more overt death metal inclinations that were    ║ │
│║   brewing in Brazil's correspondingly dark thrash outfits      ║ │
│║   Sarcofago and Sepultura.                                     ║ │
│║                                                                ║ │
│║   The reference to the late 80s Teutonic thrash sound in       ║ │
│║   describing Nervosa's approach goes beyond their tendency     ║ │
│║   towards lyrical content focused on violence and political    ║ │
│║   unrest rather than the occult-themed direction of earlier    ║ │
│║   works of Slayer and the other aforementioned influences,     ║ │
│║   and actually also reveals a band that is a bit more          ║ │
│║   stylistically nuanced and tactful in how they deliver their  ║ │
│║   brand of thrashing brutality. There are plenty of high       ║ │
│║   paced riffs that touch the blinding tremolo and rapid        ║ │
│║   galloping of Hell Awaits and Persecution Mania, but cut up   ║ │
│║   and delivered with a bit more groove and punch than said     ║ │
│║   albums, coming a bit more in line with an Agent Orange       ║ │
│║   meets Arise approach. The songs generally exhibit a level    ║ │
│║   of precision and structural symmetry that is a bit more      ║ │
│║   accessible than the wild fury of mid 80s extreme thrash,     ║ │
│║   though the vocal work of Fernanda Lira shifts things in      ║ │
│║   much more of an extreme direction, to the point of sounding  ║ │
│║   like a female version of Chuck Schuldiner circa Leprosy.     ║ │
│║                                                                ║ │
│║   As with any trio set up, there is a heavy reliance on        ║ │
│║   exemplary performances from each member with no slack to     ║ │
│║   spare, and they come out on top in this regard and actually  ║ │
│║   manage to draw some distinctions with themselves and their   ║ │
│║   forerunners in some key areas. Lira's bass work is a bit     ║ │
│║   more adventurous and notable for breaking away its usual     ║ │
│║   support role, particularly on the more mid-paced riff        ║ │
│║   monster "Wake Up And Fight" and the faster "Envious", and    ║ │
│║   generally has a prominent place in the overall mix, making   ║ │
│║   for a less crunchy and more thudding sound compared to many  ║ │
│║   earlier extreme thrash albums. Just about ever song on here  ║ │
│║   has a solid lead guitar break loaded with references to      ║ │
│║   iconic 80s thrash shredders, though the principle influence  ║ │
│║   on Prika Amaral's approach appears to be Frank Blackfire,    ║ │
│║   and the individual cases of "Death!" and "Nasty Injury"      ║ │
│║   showcase an exceptional ability to mix riffing styles        ║ │
│║   between early 80s speed and late 80s groove with a good      ║ │
│║   sense of transition. But ironically enough, the drum work    ║ │
│║   is where this album really offers up some surprises,         ║ │
│║   particularly the eclectic array of beats and styles that go  ║ │
│║   beyond repetitive d-beats with an occasional roll, though    ║ │
│║   the blasting work on "UrΓnio em N≤s", which is basically an  ║ │
│║   all out death metal song that could pass for early Cannibal  ║ │
│║   Corpse musically, is remarkably well accomplished.           ║ │
│║                                                                ║ │
│║   This is a band that is definitely worth the hype, and one    ║ │
│║   that has accrued a fairly decent cult following, though      ║ │
│║   they are deserving of a wider audience that may or may not   ║ │
│║   come given the ongoing decline in popularity of the          ║ │
│║   revivalist thrash scene. Nervosa is among the better bands   ║ │
│║   to come around lately that have elected for the extreme      ║ │
│║   niche where thrash metal flirts about as closely with death  ║ │
│║   metal without morphing into the 1988 version of it as        ║ │
│║   possible. They are fully forthcoming of where their          ║ │
│║   influences reside, not that it would be much of a secret     ║ │
│║   given they all but incorporate the same vocal line from      ║ │
│║   Sodom's "Nuclear Winter" into this album's title song        ║ │
│║   "Victim Of Yourself", itself a song that generally           ║ │
│║   exemplifies the classic approach of Persecution Mania while  ║ │
│║   still having a flavor that's a bit further along in the      ║ │
│║   Teutonic meets Brazilian extreme that Nervosa dabbles with   ║ │
│║   on here. Don't be deceived by the visual on the cover, the   ║ │
│║   only way to truly victimize yourself with an album like      ║ │
│║   this is to pass it up.                                       ║ │
