This
is the second full length album for the fans of flammable drinks after they
took time for drinking the necessary quantity of inspiration and fulfilled
the empty spaces on the table (we suspect). ALKOHOLIZER return
back stronger then ever and charged with high
speed, fun, but also serious messages.
The
Italians move in a rut where the steps of TANKARD and SACRED REICH
reverberate, but they make it with a style. The
fast rhythm section lays under speed metal riffs
during the whole album. The thrash vocals do not seek something more than a
good articulation of the lyrics but they have specific own melodies. The bass
Fabrizio Fele had taken the lead microphone in the band
yet in 2013 and this fits him well. A joke with a motive
from the movie ‘Desperado’, and some other successful tricks, take
care for the mood of the listeners to make them facing the truth of the
present day. Two songs in middle tempo
proofed that ALKOHOLIZER could not be in a hurry all the time. For
final the band makes a replica to the hip hop culture that reminds from where
began ANTRAX and BODY COUNT in some of their
inspirations.
The
new release of the Italians is pleasant and carries a good mood. There are
multilayered messages in it that will make you play the album again. I could
not say something more than “good thrash metal” because I did not hear something exceptional in „Free Beer... Surf's Up“. But the good mood is quite enough!
