COMANIAC

Debut album from 2015 by this Swiss Technical Thrash Metal band, formed by remarkably young musicians displaying an impressive level of songwriting maturity. "Return to the Wasteland" delivers a powerful blend of classic Thrash Metal aggression and speed with advanced technical proficiency, incorporating progressive elements and intricate arrangements without sacrificing intensity.

One of the album's most notable strengths is the ambition the band displays right from its first full-length release. The material features complex songwriting, frequent tempo shifts and a strong emphasis on technical execution, drawing inspiration from both late eighties Technical Thrash Metal and more contemporary approaches to the genre. The result is a confident and highly promising debut that quickly established COMANIAC as one of the most exciting names in the new wave of European Thrash Metal.
