Obliveon is one of a dozen or so thrash bands out of Quebec who
have made an impact thus far. With producer extraordinaire Pierre Remillard in
their ranks, they've created some good albums, and this is a sampler of some
of the best tracks on them. A lot of Obliveon reminds me of a less melodic Quo
Vadis, while other moments have a hardcore groove to them. "Frosted Avowals"
features both intense riffing and drumwork, while "Android Succubus" slips
into realms a little too happy for my metal taste. Obliveon then gets the hair
going with the old Megadeth -like "Whimsical Uproar", and reinforces it with
tracks like "Nemesis". You'll have to speak French to read the liner notes
on this CD, and there are some old demo songs and guitar tablature for those
of you who have a computer at home. I like that idea. With some extra reasons
to buy a greatest hits type of disc, this makes the re-release of some other
albums out there look like the cash grab that they really are. "Greatest
Pits" is a good incentive for thrash fans to hunt down albums by this cult
band.
