Annihilator is one of the biggest thrash metal
bands ever to rise from the North American continent and their last album
"Carnival Diablos" only made me like them even more than before. With this
new album they have focused more on the aggressive side of their music which
results in "Waking The Fury" being perhaps the most extreme and harsh
Annihilator album so far. All the classic trademarks of the band have still
been kept though which makes me very happy and the vocals from the rather
newly recruited Joe Comeau are very good indeed. It's nice to see that
classic thrash metal is not ready to die when the nu-metal wave have crushed a
lot of the old scene. I'm not saying that nu-metal is bad, I really like some
of the bands, but it's a shame that the majority of people so easily embrace
everything that's new and not caring too much about what has been. Music
never gets better, it only changes but this is something people find hard to
understand these days. These Canadians are some of the finest metal musicians
in the world and if you are a fan of the band I don't think you will be
disappointed this time either. There are perhaps no big hit songs like on the
last album but the overall quality is much higher than most
releases.
