Tätä mieltä Anthraxin entinen vokalisti Neil Turbin on yhtyeen tuoreesta ”For All Kings” -albumista

Yhdysvaltalainen thrash metal -yhtye Anthrax julkaisi uusimman ”For All Kings” -nimisen albuminsa helmikuun 26. päivä Nuclear Blast Recordsin kautta. Yhtyeessä vuosina 1982-1984 laulanut Neil Turbin on nyt arvostellut yhtyeen uuden albumin kanadalaiselle The Metal Voice -nimiselle sivustolle ja Turbinin mietteet yhtyeen uudesta albumista voit lukea tästä:

’You Gotta Believe’, the first song on the album, it sounds kind of like a soundtrack for a movie. And you don’t know what movie it is; it’s just long intro. The song ’For All Kings’ [is] probably not one of my favorite songs on the album, just because of the melody of the vocals. I’m just not… I don’t know… It just doesn’t… It doesn’t do it for me personally. I would say that ’Breathing Lightning’ is probably the best song on the album. That one, the vocals are less quirky than in other tracks; it really tends to sit more in the track. The riff reminds me of, probably, their ’Among The Living’ or ’Spreading The Disease’ timeframe-type riffs. I would say ’Zero Tolerance’ I thought was an interesting song. It very much reminds me of an old JUDAS PRIEST riff where the vocal follows the guitar, like ’The Ripper’. The song ’Blood Eagle Wings’, I think that one’s a little bit more interesting. On the ’Monster [At The End]’ song, they keep saying something about underwear. Listen to the lyrics: ’Underwear… underwear.’ I don’t know why people sing about their underwear. That does not excite me. Certainly it sounds tight. The band sounds professional. Obviously, the singer can sing. That’s not what we’re talking about. It’s more so just the sound is quirky on the vocal, just the feel of how the vocal melody attaches to the guitar riff and so forth, or just the feel of the song. But, you know, that is part of what the current ANTHRAX sound is. But, overall, I think the album will probably do well for them, and all the best to ’em.”
