MORBID SAINT “Spectrum Of Death – Destruction System” CD  Keltic
Surprisingly, their underrated “Spectrum Of Death” 1988 album saw a cd re-release. Musicalwise, MORBID SAINT sounds like a cross between old Dark Angel and old Kreator, which means their thrash metal is fast, intense, violent, delivered with the spirit of evil brutality. Back in the past, I founded that their album was impressive, and my thoughts haven’t changed today as songs like “Damien”, “Beyond The Gates Of Hell” or “Assassin” have passed the test of time still staying great killer tracks ! No fillers, about thirty minutes of total musical rage with bleeding vocals. As bonustracks, you get the eight tracks of the “Destruction System” 1992 demo. Four years later, the material is a little less impressive, but the band still kills by keeping the brutality and the intense rage, with a progression in the guitar’s solis department. MORBID SAINT deserved more than just one lp. They were unlucky as many other bands, but at least, they left their legacy with a great album.
