Re-Armed, ‘Worldwide Hypnotise’, cd review.

There must be something in the Finnish air that makes it one of the most prolific Metal producing countries on the planet. Latest export Re-Armed carry on that tradition with this debut release via Massacre Records.
The band’s roots can be traced back to 2001 with acclaimed demo tapes filling the void until this years fully fledged debut featuring renowned bass player Kartsy Hatakka (Waltari).
Offering 9 hefty slabs of Death/Thrash Metal ’Worldwide…’ takes no prisoners with it’s full tilt, full thrust assault. Tracks such as ‘Hoax’ and ‘Deathtrap’ are prime examples of how good this genre can be when done properly, so good in fact that it earned the band a support slot with Chimaira on their European tour.
If this release is a portent of things to come, the future looks very bright indeed.
