UMUR
Nothing is Sacred is the 6th full-length studio album by Danish death metal act Konkhra. The limited edition of the album includes a bonus CD which features The Vicious Circle (1990) and the Malgrowth (1991) demos.

The music on Nothing is Sacred is death metal with elements of thrash metal. Listening to the album it quickly becomes very apparent to me that I´m not really enjoying myself very much. The production is professional, the songs are well composed and the musicianship is pretty good too but it´s like the music on the album isn´t that inspired. I´m not feeling a burning need to change the world or maybe a little less ambitious to just crush my skull here. For music like this to work for me I have to feel that the musicians involved really believe that what they are doing is going to change the world and I´m not feeling anything here. 11 tracks of average death metal that probably won´t move anyone´s world but a few diehard fans just isn´t enough for me. Anders Lundemark´s voice has certainly seen better days too. He sounds more like a hoarse barking dog than his old growling self. When I´m more interested in the bonus CD with the old demo material than the new album something is wrong.

So I guess the positives here are that this is not as such a bad album. Songs like Religion Is A Whore and Killswitch do kick some ass, but overall this is pretty tame and average and to be honest I´m struggling to give a full 3 star rating so I guess a 2.5 star rating will do.
