'Teufels' is raw and gritty, which I assume is the
intention of the band at the end of the day. Some of the
tracks here are pure Venom clones, whilst the playing is
agricultural in the extreme. The drums are like
jackhammers you just want to bugger off before your head
caves in, the riffs are routine, and the vocals are on a
par with Chronos in 1984. In fact, it's Mihu's vocal
delivery that is one of the biggest conundrums when
listening to this 39-minute album for his delivery fits
the music perfectly but in any other setting you'd be
questioning your musical tastes. Slightly out of tune,
never really unleashing a full vocal range, this is
basic vocals that you'd expect to have improved by the
fourth album. But then you suddenly realise that this is
exactly what is needed. It's filthy, dirty and with muck
under the fingernails. 
It's evident from the opening bars of 'Tunes of Black
Contagion' that this album is going to be as original as
a pub drunk picking to sing 'My Way' on karaoke night.
It's not even played particularly well, but there is
something completely endearing about it. It might be the
grit and endeavour; it might be the sheer refusal to
conform, or it might be just the sheer middle finger to
those that disapprove. Whatever, a couple of spins of
the likes of 'Rite of the Incubus', 'Scorching Trauma'
or even the cover of Arthur Brown's 'Fire' will either
have you warming to this in a way you might not have
thought possible, or you'll be throwing something at the
stereo.
