Energetic Disassembly
- Release date: 1985
- Genres: Technical Thrash Metal, Progressive Metal
- Rating: 4/5
Crazy Thrash insanity, pushing the boundaries of a genre only a few years old and infusing progressive and jazzy influences, giving the impression of 70s progressive rock given the full thrash makeover. Extremely outlandish and overwhelming on first blush, with the complex, dizzy guitar rhythms, accentuated bass accents, high pitched power-metal-esque vocals all underpinned with dull, reverb-less electronic-esque drums with loud, splashy cymbals - all wrapped in a dry, anxiety-inducing production package. It must be heard to be believed, and while some of the songs can be a little too “technical for technical sake”, simply embracing/succumbing to the madness is an experience all should do at least once.
Best tracks: Violent Change, Asylum, Energetic Disassembly, Agonne Forest, Meltdown
