This
is the second output from German band HOKUM and it’s called
“No Escape”.
Hokum
plays a surprising good mix of Heavy Metal, Thrash and Death
Metal and its actually very “catchy”… but don’t worry
it’s very aggressive
too. It is very easy to tell the numbers apart, and the music is
filled with great riffs and aggressive drumming and of course
aggressive vocals.
But they never lose control over their songs, which is a really
big plus in my book, far too many lose the red line within their
compositions!
The
Rhythms are ever-changing, from straight Death Metal to 80’s
Thrash and traditional
Metal. “No
Escape” was recorded in January 2006 by RPWL-Mastermind Yogi
Lang at
the Farmlands Studios Freising and you can order the album via the
homepage of the band.
Yes…
this album is surprising strong and I can highly recommend it to all
fans of Thrash and Death Metal.
I
would love to see more of this band in the future as they have
displayed the potential to rival the best out there.
