Review Summary: meh.

There's a curious trend within the metal community to award certain albums and bands high scores simply because they are very obscure and hard to find, without really taking into account the actual songwriting. Several examples come to mind: Morbid Saint's Spectrum of Death, Demolition Hammer's Epidemic of Violence (which is actually good) and this one: Aspid's Extravasation.

In Aspid's case, there's a good reason why this album remained obscure. First of all, it's in Russian, and hence inscrutable to people of the Western world. And second, there really isn't anything interesting in this album that grabs your attention. The riffs, albeit admittedly technical lack catchiness and flow. The songwriting is boring, lacking variation or a decipherable structure. And the only progressive thing about the album is the excessive length of the songs.

Avoid this album. If you're looking for thrash albums that are not only obscure but also good, check out Demolition Hammer's Epidemic of Violence.

P.S. The closing instrumental, Extravasation, is actually pretty good.

I negged. This is way too short of a review regardless, but you spend 1/2 of it saying idiotic things like:



- There's a curious trend within the metal community to award certain albums and bands high scores simply because they are very obscure and hard to find, without really taking into account the actual songwriting.



- First of all, it's in Russian, and hence inscrutable to people of the Western world.



This is NOT evidence to support rating:



- The songwriting is boring, lacking variation or a decipherable structure.



And lastly, there should be a comma here:



- The riffs, albeit admittedly technical, lack catchiness and flow.

nice soundoff bro



On the plus side, this will probably attract more people to listen to it, since it can't possibly be bad if the negative review is written like THIS.

I'm more partial to the remaster over the original, but that's because I like the ferocity and speed of the remaster.
