“Break The Ice,” is a thunderous song. One that is built on the back of some serious riffage. Madhouse really get things going here.
“Never Say Die,” is a riff sandwich, filled with groove and absolutely swagtastic riffs, it builds itself into something new and refreshing,
“Who Made You God,” snarls and crackles with energy and bite. A snarling concoction of riffage and biting rage. Brilliantly done by Madhouse.
“Poisoned Blood,” takes the swaggering route to perfection.
“Braindead,” the title track of the album is a thundering opus. A song that combines a pounding drum beat, with a haunting melodical guitar pattern and a sneering vocal line.
“Save Your Soul,” goes in for the battering ram approach. The riffs are in your face and filled with aggression and spite. Brilliantly done by Madhouse.
“Last Man Standing,” shuffles through the temperature and delivers a crushing blow. A song about never giving up and always fighting, done brilliantly.
“Knights of Avalon,” goes for the anthemic route. Madhouse really deliver a seismic performance here.
“Oscar,” pushes the envelop just a tad. Bringing together differing elements of the wider whole to enable completion.
“Evil Fantasies,” is a sonic punch to the gut.
“Psycho God,” goes all in for the riff swag.
The album is out on 12th June.
