The Kandidate- Until We Are Outnumbered
released Feburary 9, 2010 on Napalm Records Added to WRUV 5/7/10
The Kandidate is a thrash metal band originally started as a two man project, evolving over the years into its’ present form. First impressions are a strong album full of thrash metal riffs and drumming. Delving deeper, Strength Through Diversity starts off this album with the vocals of Jacob Bredahl cutting through the music like a knife. Brutal, uncompromising thrash metal is the style here with fast drumming, etc. It does have a slight black metal tinge in the way the drums are structured and also a bit of hardcore. The pacing of the drums in Shut ‘Em Up has a very hardcore feel to it. Distress And Decay is the shortest song on this album and I really like the beginning of it. I’m not sure what else I could say to add to this album but I like how they build upon their sound from track to track. It’s certainly not enough to label this as thrash metal when you can see the obvious hardcore and black metal influences. Certainly worth checking out if you love thrash.
