REVIEW: ENDORPHINE - ENDORPHINE

 


ENDORPHINE - ENDORPHINE (Independent / Kick Promotion Agency, 2000):


Technical data:

Recorded and mixed at Jumping Spider´s by Maddalena Bellini.

Artwork by Temno.


Track List: 1- Dust Rivers, 2- Cynic Show, 3- Nectar, 4- Dear Old Friends.


Endorphine plays extremely technical thrash /heavy metal with influences from eighties thrash bands like Annihilator, Testament, etc. Four songs are presented here, one of them an instrumental ("Dear Old Friends") full of thrashy rythms and certain elements and rhythm changes that most metal bands have forgotten (there are certain changes that I would like to listen more often in bands of all metal substyles). I must praise the work of the rhythm section, specially the drums of Peppe Iovine, that avoids certain cliches favoring an original approach to the instrument. Favorite tracks: "Cynic Show" and "Nectar". Contact: www.endorphine.3000.it or madfucker@libero.it
