Davidian/Our Fear Is There Source/Massacre Records/2012 CD Review



  Davidian  are  a  band  from  Germany  that  plays  a  brutal  form  of  death/thrash  and  this  is  a  review  of  their  2012  album  "Our  Fear  Is  There  Source"  which  was  released  by  Massacre  Records.

  Drums  range  from  slow,  mid  paced  to  fast  drumming  with  a  good  amount  of  blast  beats  being  thrown  into  the  music,  while  the  bass  playing  has  a  very  dark  tone  with  riffs  that  follow  the  riffing  that  is  coming  out  of  the  guitars  and  at  times  they  have  a  very  powerful  sound  to  them,  as  for  the  synths  which  are  only  utilized  briefly  they  bring  a  very  dark  and  atmospheric  sound  to  the  music.

  Rhythm  guitars  range  from  slow,  mid  paced  to  fast  riffs  that  combine  influences  from  both  death  and thrash  metal  with  some  melodies  being  used  at  times  as  well  as  a  brief  use  of  soft  and  clean  playing,  while  the  lead  guitars  are  very  melodic  sounding  guitar  solos  and  leads.

  Vocals  range  from  thrash  growling,  deep  death  metal  growls  and  high  pitched  screams,  while  the  lyrics  cover  aggressive  themes,  as  for  the  production  it  has  a  very  strong,  powerful,  heavy  and  professional  sound  to  it.

  In  my  opinion  Davidian  are  a  very  good  sounding  modern  day  death/thrash  metal  band  and  if  you are  a  fan  of  this  style,  you  should  check  out  this  band.  RECOMMENDED  TRACKS  INCLUDE  "Behind  An  Angelic  Smile"  "Shattered  Illusions"  "Vicious  Circle"  and  "Freedom  Of  Choice".  RECOMMENDED  BUY.
