A Different Kind of Hell

dcdirkzwager Ooooh, this band makes thrash fun (and remind me of their label mates Gravesend in that fashion). I hear a lot of (newer) Kreator influences, which is to my likings!

Wan Medeiros 🇺🇸 Thrilling, classic Thrash Metal with fast riffs, harmonized solos and 𝗣𝗲𝘁𝗲 𝗖𝗮𝗿𝗽𝗮𝗿𝗲𝗹𝗹𝗶's unique voice guide the listener through an epic journey filled with 80's influences mixed with melodeath sensibilities, creating a unique and powerful sound. Lyrical context explores nightmares and supernatural horrors in the story of a lone adventurer as a guiding thread. 𝕭𝖑𝖔𝖔𝖉𝖑𝖊𝖙𝖙𝖊𝖗 demonstrates mastery in his style, delivering an unforgettable sound experience.⛧ Favorite track: To Darkness Damned.

sachavonkarl74 "All shall be speared, none will be spared!" Love the tee-shirt !! I did get this on that other fruity platform but decided to get it here as well for support !! No real favorite here, all great songs really!! Favorite track: The Last Tomb.

JColeman This album rules. Melodic thrash metal with awesome guitar solos, should come with a six pack though. Favorite track: Flesh Turned to Ash.

Sorefist Seemed to take ages to arrive then age to get away from the family to listen properly but it was so worth it! Awesome music & those duelling guitars - brilliant.

boulderrr Blood is Life is an Insanely good start to the album, looking forward to see what comes next!

about

"10/10 Masterpiece" - Leanne “Metal Maiden” Evans, Metal Temple

"Thrashy but melodic, evil but just the right dash of campiness, and holy shit those guitars... This is classic enough for the purists and modern enough to be far more than an homage." - Andrew Lampela, Off Shelf

"Bloodletter may not have come up in thrash’s heyday, but they prove they gush the same blood and have ample levels of similar power on “A Different Kind of Hell.” The black strains make this more intense and devastating than what most of the subgenre’s pioneers created, and the horrific tales and bloodshed also give this band a mangling edge." - Brian Krasman/Meat Mead Metal

"5/5 STARS... eleven tracks of smouldering super charged metal that is as epic as it is catchy." - Sarah Jane, Scene Point Blank

"The album whizzes by in a blur of melodic riffs, harmonized solos, blast beats, and vocalist/guitarist Pete Carparelli’s howling rasp... "A Different Kind Of Hell" is an exhilarating ride and a stellar example of a modern take on ’80s-style thrash." - Gino Sigismondi, Heavy Music HQ

"...slick and shreddy, touched up with dueling guitar melodeath sensibilities and stuffed with hooks." - Toilet Ov Hell
---------------------------------
Last year, Wise Blood Records reissued the out of print Malignancy EP from skull-splitting Chicago thrashers Bloodletter. In July our blood bond strengthens with the impending release of Bloodletter’s devilish new album, A Different Kind of Hell.

Bloodletter has sharpened their riffs across a decade of blazing EPs and two full-length records. A Different Kind of Hell is a scorching thrashterpiece with the band’s most lethal songs yet. Blackened speed. Epic harmonized leads. Bloodletter forges distinctly melodic thrash metal with solos hotter than a burning chvrch.

“We wanted to take our sound further, make things more epic and adventurous, but keep the core elements of our sound,” shares vocalist/guitarist Pete Carparelli. “We decided to make this a concept record too which helped give the songs a more focused sound.

While the band’s songwriting skills ascend, their lyrics plunge into a nether realm of nightmares. On past records, Bloodletter confronted personal terrors. But in A Different Kind of Hell they slash their way past supernatural horrors with razor-edged riffage.

“The album is based on the journey of a lone adventurer, who eventually falls victim to a malevolent force,” Carparelli describes. “Each song relives a part of their nightmare and their descent into Hell.”

“Hell isn’t just a place,” he adds, “it’s a nightmare we all end up living. Our greatest fears can take any form and drive us mad. The story told on this record drives home the idea that our interpretation of Hell is different, but no less terrifying than anything we could all imagine.”

A Different Kind of Hell will drive you to madness on July 21st, 2023. Available on Vinyl, CD, Cassette, and Digital from Wise Blood Records.

I've gotten myself into GR by first getting their last album, then decided to give this one a go too. Atoms divide, life decays, seems we are into nuclear explosions here, that is how GR feels, a powerful and fast blitz and stormy riffs and groovy hardcorish - thrashy blasts. Highly recommended for all thrash lovers out there. Toxic Holocaust does come in mind, true that, Wraith, Municipal Waste fans should love this ! sachavonkarl74
