Usually, I forward the death metal releases to Paul but since he's at Maryland Deathfest this weekend, I decided to try it out myself. I've reviewed this genre in the past, obviously, but lately my focus is on other styles. However, to be honest, I'm glad I picked this seven track ep. It brings me back to a time when I listened to this stuff all the time. This is one of those nice and brutal old school thrash death albums that emerge from the vast underground of the metal scene.

Badass Commander is a trio from Canada, Quebec to be specific. I don't know when exactly started this orgy of extremes but I do know that this is their debut. It's loaded with fierce metal, inspired by everything between Kreator and Deicide or between Sodom and Dismember. Opener 'Bad Intentions' perfectly sets the tone for these eighteen minutes or eardrum slaughter. It comes with a decent amount of variation in tempo and vocals but pretty much constantly drives on grinding guitars.

The rest of the ep pretty much follows the same example, highlighting in 'General Addiction' and the grind-inspired 'Uncontrolled Hatred'. There's little else I can say about this album. It's clearly something for the old school fans, something that might in a way be seen as a tribute to those early days. So, if you're in for a decent portion of aggression, gut-ripping and deep growls, this certainly is your thing. Go ahead, download this ep and play it while you prepare to go into the weekend. You know you want to...
