U.D.O. The things that could be said after these three letters are many! However the band itself always has something new for its fans and strikes with the most uncompromising heavy metal you could imagine.

Udo continues to have the last word. 12 new compositions that besides the inimitable style hide a new charge of fury. Two of them - „Mysteryand „Rebels of the Night“ could enter the pages of a textbook of thrash metal for beginners. Exactly the aggression has always been basic means of expression in the works of U.D.O. and particularly of Udo Dirkschneider. The social charge, which message is carried by the album „Decadent“, absorbed this fury to express our indignation against the contemporary economical disproportions and the non-sense of the imposed system of values.

From its beginning the album caught our attention with the dynamic  Speeder“. The diverse as rhythms compositions do not leave us to get bored or to rest. The only ballad is well balanced between the tender sound and the metal beginning. The final composition takes down the tone and invites to a new listening of the album.

As in the most of the albums of „Decadentis a traveling of the band to itself. The application the value of the recording to grow with the time is serious, but this is the fortune of the real metal pearls.
