唱片简介:德国 Cult thrash metal 1986年第三张专辑,官方再版!
Escalation is undoubtedly a great thrash metal album. It follows almost the same formula through the eight tracks, although each track has its own charm and force that makes you headbang or at least tap with your foot –mostly– all the time.
Memorable and razorblade-like riffs, galloping basslines and precise drumming are some of the qualities that can be found here. Everything sounds clear and no instrument overlaps the another (bass is present and loud enough, which is something that few bands actually have in account). Because of that, Escalation enjoys of a healthy wall of sound that would please any thrash metal fan. Volker's approach is quite similar to that of countrymen Mille/Schmier (mostly Schmier), while retaining a lot of creativity on the gang chorus department as said by the other reviewers. That's one of the reasons why I like this album more than those of Kreator, Destruction or Sodom, besides the musical quality itself. Particularly, I find drummer Axel Strickstrock way more consistent than Tommy Sandmann or Ventor Reil, but that's just a personal appreciation.
High recommended album for thrash / classic metal listeners.
