Besieged/Victims Beyond All Help/Unspeakable Axe Records/2013 CD Re-Issue Review


  Besieged  are  a  band  from  Manitoba,  Canada  that  plays  a  very  heavy  and  old  school  form  of  death/thrash  metal  and  this  is  a  review  of  their  2010  album  "Victims  Beyond  All  Help"  which  was  re-issued  by  Unspeakable  Axe  Records  in  2013.

  Drums  range  from  slow,  mid  paced  to  fast  drumming  with  a  great  amount  of  blast  beats  being  thrown  into  the  music,  while  the  bass  playing  has  a  very  dark  tone  with  riffs  that  follow  the  riffing t hat  are  coming  out  of  the  guitars.

  Rhythm  guitars  range  from  slow,  mid  paced  to  fast  and  heavy  riffs  that  combine  old  school  death metal  and  thrash  together  to  create  a  sound  of t heir  own,  while  the  lead  guitars  are  mid  80's  to  early  90's  sounding  death/thrash  metal  guitar  solos  and  leads.

  Vocals a re  all  deep  death/thrash  metal  growls,  while  the  lyrics  cover  darkness  and  violent  themes, as  for  the  production  it  has  a  very  strong,  powerful,  heavy  and  professional  sound  which  goes  back  to  the  mid  80's  sound.

  In  my  opinion  Besieged  are  a  very  great  sounding  heavy  and  old  school  death/thrash  metal  band  and  if  you  are  a  fan  of  this  musical  genre,  you  should c heck  out  this  recording.  RECOMMENDED  TRACKS  INCLUDE  "Death" "Victims  Beyond  All  Help"  and  "Black".  RECOMMENDED  BUY.
