Classic German Thrash. - 83% Written by isaacher on September 22nd, 2006

A relatively new and unknown band from Germany; a 4-piece that is essentially still stuck in the 80s. The sound is pure 80s thrash metal (ala Kreator, Sodom, Slayer, etc..) and it's a f- riff-fest!

The structure of the songs strongly relies on riff progression, not in the "245 riff per second" Dark Angel principle, but in a more less chaotic style, and the riffs themselves absolutely kill; though I heard shades of Raining Blood (the song) in the second track. Leads are almost non-existant bar a few tracks, so I'm inclined to reduce the score as penalty.

The vocals are in the typical German style. Raspy screeches and barks with hardly any growls. Think in the Kreator or Morbid Saint style. They rip and make the music more aggressive than it already is. And then there's the occasional gang vocals that are always welcome like on Burn This Town. Overall a pretty solid vocal performance.

There are hardly any traces of the bass in the mix which is unfortunate. The drums are nothing extra-ordinary either, but they're up to the job. No double-bass or blasts; just straight up thrash.

An excellent debut from Nocturnal to sum it up. A riff driven album that absolutely slays. My only gripe with the album is the lack of leads, but that ain't enough to make it unlistenable. Recommended.

Standouts: Temples of Sin, Preventive War, Burn This Town, War of Spirits. Nocturnal Debut - 100% Written by DekSlayer on May 3rd, 2005

Everything that we need is on this album! A mix of Old Destruction, Violent Force, Kreator and Sodom! Not exaclty a "mix" but almost sounds that, but not equal in any way! Talking about the LP, you can perceive all the time the old school veins of thrash. When it starts, the "intro" starts killing our ears with the expectations of the drums, and then begin the drums and riffs! The first track after the Intro is "Temples of Sin" with sharp riffs and a lot of euphoria! Metallic Mayhem has the talent of destroying with your "vokills". The third track called "Satanic Oath" expresses the feeling of Thrash, as well as the whole album. And after this killing one comes "Preventive War" as 4th track. After listened to that I asked Evil Avenger "Who is the singer on that music! Angelripper?!" I was definitively shocked! The instrumental souds similar to Sodom! After this excellent music starts the hymn " Burn This Town". I've called Hymn because it sounds like that. The music is sung at the same time by several people, for that is a hymn! The next one is "War of Spirits" and again Metallic Mayhem controls with his killer vocals! and Avenger lacerates our ears with your Axe! That's brilliant! The screams tear in pieces everything in a row!
And then comes another one! haha I can't understand! These guys made something to the Thrash Metal history, because each track overcomes the others and it goes... The next is "Merciless Murder" and they're right, cause they don't have mercy for our ears!!!! With killer riffs starts "Nuclear Strike" showing us how to make our own Nuclear War. Sure, with those killer riffs and fast drums exploding everything, What do you want! And comes "Victorious Night" speed and consistence, the originality of this track top expectations...
And to finish this great piece of Thrash and also Heavy Metal comes "Awakening The Curse Of Souls", which grows up while as the sound volume get louder and comes the devastation!

I was surprised with the repercussion of this album. I bought with a friend of São Paulo the album in the MANIAC version. I advise, get it come what may.
