Genre: thrash metal

"Feed the Beast" offers classic thrash metal from a modern thrash metal band, Bonded By Blood being part of the thrash revival movement seeking back to the thrash metal of the time before groove metal marched in and took over from old school thrash metal.

And old school metal is what this release offers. The tracks have the same energy, and there are plenty of polkaing drumming and chugging guitars. The lyrics are suitably nihilistic and ironic, and even the band members' interests are like those of the classic thrash metal bands (e.g. skateboarding, cartoon and comic books, like the Anthrax guys) which is reflected in the lyrical themes on this album (there's even a cover version of the The Teenage Mutant Hero Turtles on this album). The music is perhaps more technical than on the classic thrash metal albums of the 1980s, but - unfortunately perhaps - the production is very similar to that on the thrash metal albums of that time, including the drowning in reverb and all.

This album is warmly recommended to thrash metal aficionados.
