AVENGER OF BLOOD - Revenge Is My Name EP
M-Theory Audio
Well of course you hope the title really means what it says. More on that later. So for those of you who just don't know or remember here's some history for ya. AVENGER OF BLOOD were this four piece act outta California who were part of the late 2000's Thrash Revival. I still consider their second full length, 2008's Death Brigade, to be one of the better releases from all those Thrash revival acts. All in all they have four full lengths out. Their last release was Completely Re-Annihilated from 2023 which I never heard.
After I gave this EP a listen I pulled out the band's Death Brigade CD, yes I own it, to compare how the they sounded then compared to now. Oddly enough I now consider Death Brigade better than I remember. It's a fuckin Thrash classic from that era which makes me laugh at all the crap people who consider themselves genre enthusiasts push out as good. Fuck em!
Getting back to this EP, it's four cuts which is fine since there's no filler. Musically the band's sound is fierce and violent. The vocals are menacing with decent enough song structure riffs. Soloing is also decent. It reminds me of their material from Death Brigade but with better production and song writing. Of course a new full length would've been better to judge em properly. But hey they're back and this release proves that their position in the US Thrash world is highly under scored.
