Here's a warning

right now: I've seen reviews that have ranged from rating this as unstructured

crap without any variation whatsoever (they're deaf morons, I'd say one

of the guys who reviewed this didn't like Bathory because of their "musical

incompetence".how the fuck this tard ever got his greasy hands on this cult

release is beyond me) to full praise of its insanity and relentless attack.

Whether or not you'll like this depends on if you can handle the chaotic,

extreme, but well-structured mess that Revenge bleeds through their instruments.

In other words, if you need conventional structures and a Marduk production

to get your kicks, stay away from this release. If Conqueror and Beherit get

your adrenaline running, then by all means hunt this disc down, as it is more

than worth whatever you'll end up paying.

The first thing

I noticed was how much more VIOLENT, lethal, and messy things got since the

War Cult Supremacy album (if you found that too extreme, dont even bother

with this), which was already a chaotic WAR Metal masterpiece in itself.

I suppose this must be the sort of stuff Förster was hinting at when he said

the newer Conqueror material was going to be 10 times the ferocity of their

debut. If you know anything of James Read's projects, you should know what

to expect in the drum department. Only thing is, this is FAR more varied (!)

than anything he's done in Conqueror or Axis Of Advance, not to mention about

ten light years faster (!!!). The drum beats range from your average, tried-and-true

bass-snare-hihat hyperblasts (no triggers here motherfuckers) to some immensely

interesting 16th note militaristic patterns which are extremely catchy and

emphasize the war atmosphere PERFECTLY, to say the least. If you're not banging

your fist violently on the nearest object when listening to these songs, something

is amiss. Oh, and to say that the drumming is all out blasting without variation

is absolutely retarded. There are plenty of rhythmic variations and tempo

changes. Fuck these deaf cretins; go listen to some Dork Funeral if this is

too much for you to handle.

The guitars

are razor sharp and completely feral (remember those whacked-out pick scrapes

that were all over songs like Infinite Majesty? therere even more of those

on here) though they are often hid underneath the drum and vocal attacks

(and consequently sound like a low buzz of a nuclear reactor about 90% of

the time) except for the shrill and furious and seemingly random solos, which

I think completely destroy Slayer's in precision, speed, and in their frenetic

nature. Truly cult stuff indeed. The ballsy distorted bass is also quite easily

heard and lends a rather muddy sound sometimes, especially at the beginning

of Vengeance Absolute. Fuck! I love that intro!!!

The vocals

*will* take some getting used to, even if you have a violently sick mind like

I do. Again, if you've heard Conqueror, you can expect more of Read's trademark

ANGRY muffled rasps; however, this time around he utilizes vocal effects to

a much greater extent. Sometimes it'll range from a muddy, low, sick growl

(no, not at all like the laughable burping in Grindcore - this actually sounds

EVIL) that sometimes reminds me of Nuclear Holocausto to a shrill robotic

tone that sounds utterly creepy. All in all these are the most original vocals

I've heard EVER, not to mention the SICKEST that have ever been laid onto

disc. True aural decimation indeed (sorry, I had to use that).

Oh, if you

thought Bathory's original "War" kicked ass, just *wait* till you hear THIS

version. Total destruction and chaos is all I have to say! Words cannot really

describe just how fucking killer this CD is. It's quite short (only 16:34)

but it's more than extreme and diverse enough to have found a permanent spot

in my playlist. Worship this attack on the human race or go away.
