PHANTOM (mex)

2nd album from 2025 by this young Mexican Speed/ Thrash Metal band, one of the most promising acts to emerge from the new wave of underground Extreme Metal. Following the strong impact of its debut "Handed to Execution", PHANTOM returns with "Tyrants of Wrath", another relentless assault of sonic violence inspired by the wildest and most untamed years of 1980s Metal.

The album's eleven tracks stand out for their combination of blazing speed, razor-sharp riffing and nearly nonstop aggression. Far removed from overly polished modern productions, PHANTOM embraces a raw and visceral approach that captures the essence of primitive Speed/ Thrash Metal while incorporating touches of old-school Black Metal. The result is a ferocious, direct and highly distinctive release that further confirms the band's impressive creative momentum.
