TheBigBlack Review
(25 May 2024)
When Kerry King announced his new solo band he made it clear what the world was going to get - Slayerless Slayer, as that is what he likes to play. When the album was finally released, that is precisely what was heard, but it was clear that he had really taken his time to put a very personal stamp on it. Phil Demmel on guitar is a great touch, as his soloing style is very different to King's, but compliments it perfectly. The album is punchy as hell, and the production is faultless, really allowing each musician to shine - and King really has assembled a world class thrash act with the addition of Slayer alumni Paul Bostaph on drums and Mark Osegueda of Death Angel on vocals. From the moment 'Diablo' (the instrumental intro) starts this all sounds oddly familiar, but in a good way. A way that wakes you warm inside and feels like you are going home. Yeah, there are some moments straight from every Slayer song King has written (hear 'Idle Hands' and ' Trophies Of The Tyrant' for examples), but for the most part the album stands up as its own angry animal, with songs like 'Toxic' showcasing some of the heaviest music King has ever produced, and 'Two Fists' has nods to the punk that inspired young King to pick up a guitar. A couple more tempo changes in the form of mid-paced songs are perfectly placed, with 'Residue' and 'Tension' allowing a break from the pummelling, but this was clearly an album where King was out to prove something - and he has - that even post Slayer his music is still a force of nature that will continue unbaited. |
