-Ancient forest Zine on SEP2024:
Brazilian metal titans Breakdown have unleashed their latest sonic weapon, "Divide and Konquer," a five-track EP that throws listeners back to the golden age of thrash. This isn't just a nostalgic nod to the past; it's a full-fledged assault on the senses, fueled by raw energy, technical prowess, and a relentless commitment to the genre's core principles.
From the opening track of "The Tentacles of Hate," Breakdown establishes their intent: to deliver a sonic experience that is both familiar and exhilarating. The track's relentless barrage of riffs and tempo shifts, from furious gallops to menacing crawls, keep the listener perpetually on edge, mirroring the chaos and unpredictability of the world they depict.
The title track, "Divide and Konquer," is a true thrash anthem, a sonic embodiment of rebellion and defiance. Its infectious riff, thunderous drums, and savage vocals are a potent cocktail of aggression and urgency, urging listeners to rise against oppression. This is Breakdown at their most ferocious, a sonic battle cry that resonates deeply with fans of the genre.
"War" is a brutal and visceral track that captures the chaos and destruction of conflict. The relentless tempo, razor-sharp riffs, and relentless drumming create a sonic landscape of pure aggression. The guttural vocals paint a vivid picture of hatred and despair, reminding us of the human cost of war.
"Rise from the Dead" offers a welcome change of pace, showcasing a more atmospheric side of Breakdown's musical prowess. The track builds slowly, with haunting melodies and a sense of impending doom. The vocals, while still powerful, are more melodic here, conveying a sense of desperation and resilience.
"Angels Don’t Kill" closes the EP on a powerful note, a blistering display of technical proficiency that showcases Breakdown's mastery of the thrash genre. The intricate riffs, furious drumming, and soaring vocals are a testament to their talent and dedication. It's a fitting end to an EP that is both ferocious and captivating.
"Divide and Konquer" is a testament to Breakdown's commitment to the old-school sound, a sonic journey back to the roots of thrash metal. Recorded with the legendary Andy Classen at Stage One Studio in Buhne, Germany, and drums tracked at Bay Area Estudios in Brazil, the EP boasts a production quality that is both raw and refined. The sound is thick and heavy, with a sense of immediacy that transports the listener to the heart of the mosh pit.
This EP is a must-listen for fans of thrash metal. Breakdown's undeniable talent and passion for the genre shine through in every track, making "Divide and Konquer" a true gem in the world of extreme metal.
