Throwdown - Vendetta


Prepared yourself to be provided with brutal breakdowns and in-your-face riffs, a perfectly mixed of Pantera ( the vocalist really sounds a bit like Phil Anselmo, the singer of Pantera ) and sloganeering anthems a la Hatebreed. This "Vendetta" CD was the fourth full studio album by this Orange County Hardcore act - Throwdown, which was released under well known Trustkill Records in 2005. This album is tight, polished, and ready to strip you down and make you anti-mosh in your underwear. Over the years Throwdown has always delivered a steady onslaught of brutally heavy hits, and "Vendetta" is no exception. Some of the spiteful, caustic riffs echo Dimebag Darrell, but it's the singer's howls that really bring Pantera to mind. Vocalist Dave Peters switches off between Phil Anselmo-like shrieks and Hatebreed-esque bellows and shout alongs. Still standing strong after all these years, the group remains steadfastly committed to representing the voice of those unloved, disrespected, and ignored. With topics ranging form friendship to straight edge to life in general the heartfelt lyrics of Dave Peters, aren’t to be taken lightly. Well, this is Throwdown, the most brutal bands on the prowl. Get the fuck up and start doing windmills in your living room dood!
