RUDE

Debut album from 2014 by this American Death Metal band from California. Formed in the Berkeley, Oakland and San Francisco area, RUDE emerged on the underground scene with "Soul Recall", a release that immediately drew attention due to its complete devotion to the classic Death Metal sound of the late 1980s and early 1990s. Rather than following modern trends, the band chose to revive the spirit of the genre's pioneers, delivering an album deeply rooted in the golden age of American Death Metal.

Within the band's catalog, "Soul Recall" remains one of its defining releases and the album that established the foundations of its musical identity. The record successfully combines the brutality and darkness of influences such as DEATH, MORBID ANGEL, AUTOPSY and PESTILENCE while incorporating a sinister atmosphere and a strong Old School approach that never feels like mere nostalgia. The consistency of the songwriting and the band's ability to capture the essence of classic Death Metal while maintaining its own identity helped make this debut one of the standout releases of the Old School Death Metal revival of the 2010s.

Recommended for fans of: DEATH, MORBID ANGEL, AUTOPSY, PESTILENCE, MASSACRE.
