Given an album art like this, you’d expect some old school death metal, or a sort of doom-inspired sludge metal. How about thrash metal with hints of speed metal and hardcore punk?
From Germany, what we have here is a combination of Holy Moses, Lååz Rockit, and Exodus. This album is Zerre’s fourth studio album, having crossed over into thrash metal on their previous album. The two albums prior to their split up and reforming were of the hardcore punk variety.
Huge sound, blistering guitars, and energetically pissed off. Definitely recommend for fans of chunky contemporary crossover thrash, like Power Trip or Fugitive.

I 100% fell for the cover thinking it would be an OSDM or tech-death album. Surprised, but pleasantly, totally badass. Never, and I mean NEVER would have guessed they were German, I could have sworn they were West Coast.
I’m noticing a common theme with newer thrash coming out across the world, roughly half of the cases nowadays are not just inspired mostly by Bay Area stuff, but attempt to add to that style. Of course I’m pulling this 50% number out of my ass, but it just feels that way lol.
