Sadistic Eyes is a Japanese band that was
formed in 2000 by Toru Kashii as he had left his previous band Raging Fury
because of musical differences. He quickly gathered a new line-up, including a
couple of former Narcotic Creed members, and in 2001 they recorded this demo /
promo cd which showcases four of the band's own songs. "Raging Fury" would
be a good way to describe the music that is presented on this disc because
Sadistic Eyes is a band full of energy and rage. There is no doubt that these
Japanese men have been influenced by the old thrash metal masters such as
Death Angel, old Destruction and Kreator. The vocals are however more brutal
and death metal sounding than the aforementioned ones. I really enjoy the
vocals since they are strong and help to make their music more powerful and
not solely based on traditional thrash / speed metal. Sometimes they find
themselves trapped in the same riffing for a little too long but most of the
time this disc is fully enjoyable. The sound quality is also a lot better than
what you could have the right to demand from a self-financed demo recording. I
am glad to see that there is quality metal produced in Japan as well and not
only consumed. If you liked Death Angel's album "The Ultra-Violence" then
you will probably like this brand new Japanese act as
well.
