CHARIOTS OF THE GODS
“Tides Of War”
(-)
CHARIOTS OF THE GODS makes me think of grandiose epic metal that brings forth the feeling of Armageddon. The name does not say weak emo in any way. And hopefully it will be anything but weak. What this Canadian band is up to we will know momentarily when the beam hits the plastic. Hopefully this will turn out to be the light that shines on this cold and dark January day. There is a deathrash feeling to this album. You get the rawness of death metal mixed with the (sort of) melodic sensibility of thrash. I like this kind of crossover. COTG lean more towards thrash than anything else. This makes me think of older bands from the late 90s than any contemporary acts. Perhaps a bit like a harder and brasher The Haunted. Anders Ekdahl
