FAUST (cze)

Debut album from 2022 by this Czech Thrash/ Speed Metal band, one of the most exciting newcomers to emerge from the recent old-school metal revival. Although the band is relatively new, their sound and attitude feel as if they were transported directly from the second half of the 1980s, showing a clear devotion to the genre's roots.

Rather than relying solely on nostalgia, the album delivers aggressive and energetic Thrash/ Speed Metal enriched with touches of Crossover and even Crust, giving the band a distinctive identity within a classic framework. Sharp riffs, relentless speed and a completely unhinged attitude make this release both original and devastatingly effective.

Recommended for fans of: EXCITER, RAZOR, VENOM and AGENT STEEL.
