Produced By: Mauro and Panzer


Tracks: 1- Fake Games of Heroes, 2- Red Days, 3- Affliction, 4- Show Me!, 5- Box, 6- Speedy, 7- My Night, 8- Your Blood, 9- The Strongest, 10- Fear of God, 11- House of Decadence, 12- The Strongest (reprise)


Recorded at Alchimia Studio 


Here we have a Brazilian thrash metal who has a really modern sound in the guitars and the drums making them sound powerful. The first thing that got my attention is the singer: he sounds sometimes like Slayer´s Tom Araya, but in many places he is more guttural and in other he makes interesting melodies (fitting perfectly the music, such as a heavier John Bush). Here we have a band with an excellent sound (plus excellent mix of the album) who has composed twelve powerful tracks with technical parts and interesting arrangements. One thing that I liked a lot is the killer drumming with a lot of double bass arrangements that are really well combined with the guitar work (I liked a lot the joke in "Red Days" with the riff of Black Sabbath´s "Heaven and Hell" in the middle). This is a band that can be on top of the thrash metal scene and they have a really modern sound (this is another proof that thrash metal is making a comeback) !

Favorite tracks: The whole CD
