Bolt Thrower - The IVth Crusade
Playing death metal in generally mid paced temos, Bolt Thrower were at their peak with their 4th full length studio album entitled : "The IVth Crusade". Released under Earache Records back in 1992, this album was groove oriented Death metal played in the same vein as Obituary. Bolt Thrower are known somewhat as experts of their genre, death metal. Simply because they have the undoubted talent to create some of the heaviest and ferocious music with uncompromising double bass drum beats, low growls and unbeatable solo's. Karl's vocals are excellent in that his vocal range is just low enough to sound dark, but high enough that it doesn't compete with the tuned-down guitars and other instruments, and fits well in the mix, unlike other bands that pretend to be of this type where the guitar and vocals step on each other. The variety of tempo changes really keeps the album from growing monotonous but musically, the band doesn’t try to be overly technical and most of the music is pretty simple. Established since 1986, It's almost more than 23 years Bolt Thrower are kicking around the scene. This was their best album in my opinion, just check it out and bang your head! Yeah, it's a solid Death Metal Album!
