Any of you young cats that liked this. Check out a local band from Chicago from the early 90's called Demented Ted. They have the same sound. Super sick!!!
Album Review from This Day in Metal: by Rick Eaglestone Album Review: Wraith - Fueled By Fear June 27 2024 2:49 PM Fueled By Fear is released via Prosthetic Records on June 28, 2024 Indiana's emitters of blackened thrash, speed metal Wraith return with an exploration of a dystopian landscape with a brand new album - Fueled By Fear Opening proceedings is the instrumental showcasing 'Asylum' which nicely demonstrates individual influences and stylistic flourishes before firing into the album's title track 'Fueled By Fear' - which is an all-out blackened thrash fan fest dominated by basslines, sharp solos, undeniably toe-tapping drum patterns and an equally captivating vocal delivery - an absolutely wonderful start! Bringing with it a wave of the '80s is the majestic 'Horses and Hounds' which is aptly named as there are plenty of gallops and the solos are fierce, this is then followed up by the razor-sharp death metal laden 'Shame In Suffering.' Moving onto 'Code Red' the album interweaves between styles and is like a freshly brewed black coffee - full of energy and tasty, easily my highlight track of the album with wave after wave of solos thrown in for good measure and 'Ice Cold Bitch' makes the transition to this section of the album effortless. Dominating basslines fire through 'Warlord' with almost a Satyricon vibe in places, where the combination of 'Merchant Of Death' and 'Heathens' easily provides the album's most fast-paced section. There's no time for sweet and slow ballads as Wraith are still on their strict diet of thrash and throwbacks as 'Hells Cannon' fires through the headphones and tries to get my body to move in ways it hasn't in two decades. 'Vulture' is just sublime with insane levels of technicality whilst 'Shattered Sorrow' has a really nice groove to it, underpinned by well, you guessed it delightful blackened thrash of the highest order. 'Truth Decay' limbers up as the albums penultimate offering with lashings of fury before 'The Breaking Wheel' with a much slower yet purposeful delivery offering yet another earworm-worthy dynamic track. Rating: 8/10
Been Wraith fan from the self titled EP.. These guys always nail it. In this case they lifted it even higher, completer... Really hope to catch these guys live here in the Netherlands one day! Stay heavy guys... Big respect!! 🤘🏼
I'm 54 and now I feel like a teenager... Vocals sounds like Great "Possessed" 1985 album, the fathers of death metal, with a lot of black and thrash metal! Great!!! THANKS!!!🤘🤘🤘Thrash till death!!!
This album is currently on repeat . Best work out album in years. I like this as much or more than Undo The Chains. Huge fan. Thanks for keeping it alive boys.
Album cover is a blend of Maiden’s “Peace of Mind”, “Heathen’s “Breaking The Silence” mixed with Sepultura’s “Schizophrenia”. Well done guys. This album fucking rips!
Really solid guitar work, drummer has some solid marches sometimes, I'm not used to the classic black metal vocals on a thrash project, but I appreciate that the lyrics are still clear. This is a good band
YEEEEEAAAAAHHHHH🤘😝🤘! GOD DAMN! TOP KILLER STUFF! PRETTY AWESOME ALBUM🤘😎🤘! The guitar riffs were fast and furious, with a powerful hook⚡️💥🔥!! Great example of how you can combine genres with quality🤘❤️🔥🤘!!!
Epic Album, Kick-ass riffs, and a top-notch Thrash, Blackened Thrash released this year what an epic album? it is such a sick album surely for the fans of Possessed and Early Sodom or Destruction you find some influences here from the band and know what they're doing.
46 años pero soy como un chico de 15 cuando escucho álbums como éste... bueno, sinceramente, me quedé clavado en los 16... los 15 y los 16 años han sido los mejores de mi vida porque ME SENTÍA VIVO. Después se torció todo y todo se fue por el retrete
Офигительные, жесткие риффы! Но вокал, как мне показалось, звучит как то на заднем фоне. А так все ништяк! Была еще одна гр хард н хэви,. тоже наз. Wraith...
What a wonderful genre of music metal is.... I thank my Grandfather and father for showing me music similar to this growing up. 20 years old here, and I absolutely love metal. Every subgenre. But my favorite would have to be Doom Metal. But, like I said... I do love it all.
