MORTYR “Rise Of The Tyrant”

MORTYR
“Rise Of The Tyrant”
(Stormspell)
I have no idea if this is supposed to be a play on words or if MORTYR is a creature from some literary work. But I like the way it sounds when you say it out loud; MORTYR. With such a cool name this better be some cool metal or the name is lost on something subpar. And the whole thing screams thrash metal so much that anything else would be a crime against humanity and a total loss of a really cool cover art work. And thankfully this is thrash metal the way Razor was thrash. OK, so this is old school. I don’t care. The thrash of the 80s was some of the coolest metal to be released and still to this day work like a charm. So any band that plays retro thrash and do it the way MORTYR does it will get my approval. This gets two thumps up, three if I had had another hand. Anders Ekdahl
