2014 Album Reviews: Cavelera Conspiracy - Pandemonium

Max Cavalera definitely has a style of his own in both his guitar playing and with vocal that comes through in everything he does as soon as you hear it. With 'Pandemonium', I was actually thrown off when the vocals kicked in as they were much deeper, almost death metalish, than I'm used to hearing from Max. From that point on, I was actually excited to hear him try something new. Musically, they went for a straight up thrash sound that keeps the speed up and the aggression high. Brother Igor certainly brought his A game and new bassist Nate Newton (from Converge) was the right choice for this style. I advise grabbing a neck brace before listening as you will have no choice but to headbang your way through this one!
