 | Speed Revolution, 1985 Rules Of Mystery, 1986 Ah, German 80s speed metal! This is good speed metal influenced by Destruction and a bit of the early Helloween stuff on Rules Of Mystery. The 1st album is more intense and rougher and just better than the second, on which they try several improbable melodic riffs. Speed Revolution is actually quite fun, if not a revelation. Like Necronomicon, Darkness or Exumer, Vectom are clearly for the speed metal completist, as this is not in the league of the German masters (Assassin, Living Death, Backwater, Protector... you know what I mean). Great nostalgia anyway! CD rip with no tags (track lists here). Track 12 PS: try what I just did - switching from Vectom to Ludichrist... argh zer zer zerrrrrRRrrrrRrRRRRRrrrrr Ludichrist |
track 12 on Rules Of Mystery is corrupted
ReplyDeleteI agree this is not Premier League German thrash metal, but I don't agree about Exumer. Their 'Possessed by Fire' is a killer!!!
ReplyDeleteAlways loved this band. "Loudness and Speed" is on par with the best of German speed/thrash.
