Back in May, I was finally posting the new Savage Master record here on the blog. I decided to check Shadow Kingdom to verify pressing info and I noticed an ad for a band named Void on their website. The ad described them as a technical thrash metal band, and it brought to mind bands like Holy Terror... and since I really like Holy Terror, I figured that I'd give this Void a chance and check the songs from their latest two song 7 inch.
Look, I really wasn't expecting much here. I thought that it would be good but forgettable, but I was wrong. The two songs here, one original that will be on the upcoming LP from Void, and a cover of Celtic Frost's Necromantical Screams, and both were so good that I rushed out to buy the 7 inch. I love it when a new metal band can hook me like this because it feels so rare these days... and I'm not sure if that is just because I'm not putting in the work to find something new, or if I'm just not really interested in what many newer metal bands are doing. But this 7 inch has me excited to check out the new Void LP.
The packaging on this 7 inch is insane. A high gloss foil gatefold cover, with an OBI strip, and a nice looking piece of vinyl. 250 pressed on turquoise colored vinyl.
