Info

Thrashin’ Black/Speed Metal EP from Spellforger, an new Old School act from Indonesia. Like many before, and like many who will follow, it’s often nothing extraordinary, even when done right.

And when “Steel”, “Metal” and “Satan” is mentioned in a track while the riffs thrashin’ around, a little smirk can be seen which can imply a thought of “oh boy…” or “Hell Yeah!”. But overall, it is a good listen for sure.

As is the case with Spellforger, it’s a good listen. Old Slayer-esque inspiration, especially with the occasional Tom Araya scream combined with the Teutonic Thrash melodies and leads and First Wave Black Metal attitude, think of Venom, and you will get Spellforger.

As said, nothing extraordinary but not a single moment bored as well.
