Rage Reviews (arg) 24.03.2013
España es un país que tiene su tradición metálica ya desde los ochentas cuando Barón Rojo los puso en el mapa. Hubo otras bandas como Obús, Muro, Angeles del Infierno, en los noventas otras de death metal como Avulsed (Nota: El dueño del sello es miembro de este grupo). XtreemMusic es uno de los sellos más interesantes del under europeo. Los descubrí cuando compré mi copia de "The Burning Ground" (Revenant) mandando el dinero por "carta camuflada" a Dave Rotten (Un tipo enorme). El tiempo quiso que me centrara de nuevo en la escena ibérica al leer un ejemplar de una revista de metal extremo argentina (Metal Daze). Veo cuatro salvajes con todo el atuendo de Destruction en los ochentas. Al escuchar un par de temas me encargué toda la discografía. Omission si bien saca este disco en el 2009 tiene más recorrido. Miguel "Patillas" Hermanz (Guitarra, Voz) e Ivan Manzano fundaron la banda, ambos son ex miembros de la mencionada banda Muro. Iván al tiempo deja la banda, y "Patillas" rearma el grupo grabando a su vez un par de demos. XtreemMusic los invita a participar en un compilado ("Spain Kills") y en un inicio este disco sale autofinanciado por la banda mismo. Al agotarse casi la tirada original Xtreem les ofrece reeditarlo incluyendo dos temas en vivo como bonus track y aquí estamos... thrash metal old school muy en serio y por gente que la tiene muy clara en eso. Julito (Bajo), Juanjo (Batería) y Marco (Guitarra) secundan a Patillas en una masacre sonora de diez temas de "satanicspeed thrash metal" (Como uno de sus temas). Se inicia todo con "Bestial Belch" (Un bello y logrado eructo) y "God Bring You Down" pega derecho al mentón. Thrash muy en la línea del viejo Destruction pero con otras bandas en el medio a medida que los vas escuchando: Slayer, Venom, Possessed, Kreator, por momentos los riffs son una gillette al rojo vivo y hay que arremangarse para escuchar tanta violencia sónica generada ("Traitor", "Legions Of Youth"). En vivo gracias a los mencionados bonus uno comprueba que también son una verdadera máquina de picar en el buen sentido de la palabra. Debo admitirlo: este trabajo me ha hecho investigar más sobre que está pasando con este tipo de thrash en la Madre Patria. No se los pierdan... el título del disco más que eso es un aviso de lo que se te viene al poner el CD.

El momento que estamos viviendo en el thrash facturado en diferentes lugares de la península da para mucho más que un solo nombre reconocido. Este movimiento está en un estado de forma histórico, como comprobamos cada vez que nos llevamos a los oídos una nueva banda de este resurgido estilo. Omission es otro de los nombres a tener en cuenta dentro de la caña metalera que nos están ofreciendo nuestras bandas con unas dosis de calidad internacional. Ellos lo autodenominan Satanicspeed Thrash Metal. Lo de thrash metal lo inscriben a fuego con esas impresionantes guitarras dentro de la vena más purista del estilo. La velocidad endiablada con la que tocan explica lo de Satanicspeed. Este disco pasa sobre nosotros como un auténtico huracán, llegando a lo más extremo, rozando con esa desquiciante voz el black, lo que agradecerán los más sedientos de sangre, aunque Omission son de pies a cabeza una banda de thrash que han bebido de la vieja escuela para ahora descargar todo lo aprendido con un odio feroz multiplicado.

Supongo que no habrá viejo seguidor que se resista al rejuvenecido espíritu que Omission nos presentan en “Merciless Jaws From Hell”, que nos atrae con el doloroso placer de los gemidos femeninos tornados en gritos de “Erotic Nightmares”, dando paso a la colección de tralla sin descanso que se desencadena con “A Field Sowed Of Coffins”, donde apreciamos las constantes de esta banda con ritmos incansables, cambiantes y siempre guiños a lo más tradicional, como ese perceptible trote al que nos agarramos para continuar cabalgando con “Northmen Wrath”, donde las guitarras sobresalen en el aspecto solista ademas de seguir con su descarga de riffs. “We Are The Dead” tiene un explícito título que no engaña. Ya nos dijeron en su anterior obra “Thrash Metal Is Violence”, y no lo decían en el sentido figurado. Para que lo sigas comprobando aquí están de nuevo con cortes como “Architects Of Fear”, solo un ejemplo más de un tema demoledor de sonido apabullante que nos tumba de espaldas.

Pensar que a lo largo del minutaje del disco vas a encontrar tregua es un error. Sin escapatoria a la contundencia y agresividad de un grupo que te descuartiza con cada nuevo tema igual de cortante o más que el anterior, terminamos satisfactoriamente a merced del poder asesino de Omission. “Fuckin´Alone” sigue golpeando en un disco que ni baja en contundencia, como seguimos comprobando con “The Light In My Dark”, ni baja en calidad como apreciamos en el redondo “Here We Stand”, con un sentir muy tradicional, o en un instrumental de título “Day Of Your Death Arrives…”, donde el grupo demuestra una brillantez musical que llega más allá de que les encuadremos en un estilo concreto. Todavía dos machetazos nos esperan, cuyos títulos lo dicen todo. “You Can´t Hide” es el aviso de que no hay escapatoria a estas garras de Omission e “Ianus Rex Infernorum” nos abrasa con el infernal sello de una descomunal banda capaz de darnos semejante repaso.

No se nos escapa la formación de este grupo por los ex Muro Miguel A. Herranz (Patillas) e Ivan Manzano. Este segundo ya no sigue en la formación, pero el primero sigue tirando de este carro con la experiencia de una banda tan mítica, pero inmerso en el aire de juventud que muchas bandas están dando a un thrash metal en el que los seguidores tienen hoy en día una oferta muy amplia. Una nueva escena en toda regla con un estado de salud que nos devuelve a los mejores tiempos.

If you’re a regular of Cosmos Gaming, you probably hear me bitch a lot about how much thrash gets sent by way. Every metal label has their fair share of the genre and I usually end up getting sent a lot of it, and a lot of it ends up being pretty average. But if there is one thing I love, its thrash bands that pull more from speed metal and old school thrash more than the newer wave. Spain’s Omission falls right into that category, and their full length debut Thrash Metal is Violence (which consists of new tracks and some re-recorded demos) immediately grabbed my attention. It’s one of the better representations of the genre that I’ve come across in 2010, and should be in your collection.

The introduction to Thrash Metal is Violence may put off quite a few people (it consists of a four second belch), but move past that track and you’re immediately met with riffs that live up to the album’s name. Omission plays fast paced, dirty thrash/speed metal that is reminiscent of acts such as Kreator and they definitely do the style justice. The riffs are memorable and the amount of energy that the band is able to bring to the table is quite impressive, resulting in a release that many metal fans will find themselves putting on repeat after they’ve gotten through it once. Rather than going for old school production values, the group seems to have gone for a slightly cleaner sound which actually helps their instrumentals feel more aggressive and in your face. The Xtreem Music release of the album features two live tracks, and while you can tell that they were recorded live the quality isn’t bad and this is actually a good addition to the overall album.

Omission’s vocals hit just about every range thrash fans are used to, as they move from low pitched growls to extremely high pitched shrieks. Lead singer Miguel Hernanz has a hell of a range and is able to move between some of his pitches without losing any energy in the process. Admittedly he has one of those voices that some people might find a little grating, but if you’re like me and enjoy the more extreme end of both the high and low spectrums than you won’t mind. Hernanz is a very capable front man, and some of the wide fluctuations in his voice will leave listeners wondering if there’s even more range he can utilize in the future.

There hasn’t been a lot of thrash that has really made an impact on me this year, but Omission is one of the few that really stood out and will find its way into my stereo again and again. I’m sure that the group has plenty of room for growth and will expand into some different territory further down the road, but for now they’ve got the riffs and energy needed to hook you. Apparently the original release of Thrash Metal is Violence was in 2009, so in another couple months Omission’s second full length album will be out and I will be looking forward to hearing it.

Hay bandas o discos a los que les mirás la cara y sabés con lo que te vas a encontrar. Alcanza con mirar alguna foto de la alineación, el logo o el arte de tapa correspondiente y ya sabés lo que viene adentro. Ejemplos hay de sobra. VENOM, por ejemplo. Pero también el viejo KREATOR, el antiguo DESTRUCTION, aquél SODOM de antaño, el SLAYER de los ‘’80, y así cientos de grupos mas. Y si observás esas cosas y no estás seguro de lo que tenés en la mano, entonces normalmente le echás un vistazo al título del CD y los nombres de los temas y tratás de imaginarte lo que vas a escuchar. Bueno, queridos lectores, acá tienen todo junto. Las fotos que se ven de la banda no dejan dudas, el logo y el arte de tapa tampoco, y si el disco se llama "Thrash metal Is Violence" y en el vienen temas como "Satanic Feelings", "Primitive Instinct", "God Bring You Down", "Pure Fucking Hate" o "Satanicspeed Thrash Metal" entonces todas estas cosas hablan por si solas y no podés esperar otra cosa. Puro old school Thrash Metal. Venenoso, pesado, que recuerda mucho a todas esas bandas mencionadas al principio y que hará saltar en una pata a todos los "ochentosos" con sus chupas de cuero y sus melenas al viento. Este disco había salido en el 2009 editado por la misma banda. Y en el 2010 lo vuelve a editar Xtreem Music con dos temas bonus (grabados en vivo en un show de Madrid). Y los temas son en realidad composiciones conocidas que se pueden encontrar en sus tres Demos. Solo hay dos temas que se regrabaron con la nueva alineación ("V.P.A. y "Satanicspeed Thrash Metal"). El resto, como ya dije, es material conocido pero no por eso menos efectivo. Es un Thrash Metal mas bien al estilo europeo focusado en la crudeza y efectividad. Riffs sangrientos, buenos duelos de guitarra, un trabajo vocal que le queda de lujo al disco. Claro que no vuelven a inventar la pólvora, pero ese tampoco es el objetivo de "Patillas" (ex-MURO), los dos Marcos y del Dani. Se puede decir que es un disco que no puede faltar en ninguna colección mas o menos decente. Así que levantá el trasero y caminá hasta la tienda de discos preferida (si es que en tu zona todavía existe alguno). No te va a defraudar. Te lo prometo.

Omission certainly don't live to their name as they just let loose everything that is aggressive in metal. Combining the blistering speed of hyperblack metal and the groove of old school thrash, their latest album "Thrash Metal Is Violence" pays tribute by stirring up the most aggressive and evil feelings in anyone through the pace of the music. It's just brimming with energy that makes it impossible to sit still while listening to it, either inciting headbanging or to go kill someone. Think of it as a combination of black metal vocals on top of speed/ thrash metal's music. However, there are a few issues that could have been left out. For one... the introduction ruins everything altogether. A fifteen second long track featuring a huge belch is not the best way to start off an album, and already disdains fans for any sense of serious credibility for the band. There hasn't been a track this useless since the disgraceful "Nattefrost Takes A Piss" off the legendary black metal frontman of Carpathian Forest's debut album. Fortunately, there's plenty to make up for that.

Expect aggression, aggression, aggression with this album. Tracks like "Traitor" and "Pure Fucking Hate" take the sound of early Metallica and Slayer and deliver a fuzzy, downtuned slab of hateful thrash that churns and chugs with some sense of rhythm and groove. The vocals, unfortunately, are of the more 'higher pitched' black metal sort, and it takes a careful and selective ear to appreciate them. Sometimes the pitch gets as high as the guitars so it can become almost earsplitting... perhaps a good thing because it brings on the pain and violence even more of the band? There's the instrumental "Satanic Speed Thrash Metal" is somewhat humorous, but a great display of Omission's musical skill without the vocals to distract the listener. The guitars are obviously the most profound part, but the drums can be heard also, and offer a percussive beating that tops off the face shredding solos.

There are also a few live tracks on this album too, and fans will know when they've heard them. The drum sound is distinctly different, sound more lively, while the guitars unfortunately sound a bit faded and in the background (except when it comes to solos). The vocals are almost forgiveable because they sound as they should live- raw and uncompromising- unlike studio work which should be more polished. The mix of the symphonic elements from "Intro" track is a bit of a surprise for those who are hearing 'Thrash Metal Is Violence' as an introductory album to Omission, and could surely have been a better way to introduce the album compared to the belch that opens the album.

Overall there's a great sense of thrash metal here, and if one can get past the vocals, then they're set up for a great album. Again, this not something to relax to or even try to. Even the slightest listen will incite feelings of destruction and movement in your body and God forbid you go out and run someone over while getting lost in this craziness. Maybe that's why some people turn it off so fast... too overpowering? A must have listen for those who like old school thrash with a bit of raw production.

Like a plague of angry locusts, Omission attacks the weak with a hunger and a fury that is truly awesome to behold. The only release from the 80’s Thrash Metal scene that comes close to the frantic speed and uncontrolled mayhem of Thrash Metal is Violence is the self-financed debut from Sadus and we all know what an explosion of unrelenting hatred that one was. This is simply one of the best Thrash Metal releases of the year and Omission is riding high on the new wave of Thrash Metal carnage. Tracks like “Traitor”, “Primitive Instinct” and “Pure Fucking Hate” will have you smashing your head against the walls until your home looks like crime scene photos after a visit from the Manson family. Incredible as it may seem for a blistering Thrash Metal album, each song does not sound the same on Thrash Metal is Violence with Omission shifting gears effortlessly from Speed Metal to Thrash Metal to Heavy Metal to Grindcore, etc. Innovative and brutal as fuck, Thrash Metal is Violence is an essential addition to any Thrash Metal collection

Can't wait for the next attack from these maniacs!

This album’s cover with the ugly, bloody, dressed in chains leather, spikes and bullet belts band members and the album title look rather promising to an old-school lunatic as yours truly! That’s because all of this guarantee nothing melodic or sweet.

As the album title already reveals, Omission (not to be confused with the Dutch hardcore band with the same name) plays fast, nihilistic old-school thrash metal. Heavily influenced by ancient German thrash with the likes of Kreator, Minotaur and Sodom, but also by Possessed, Celtic Frost and Bathory, the Spanish quartet blasts its way through nine songs. These are filled with catchy riffs, screaming solos and rather mentally challenged screamy vocals! The production has deliberately kept a bit shrill, because it seems as if I’m listening to an album from 1985 or something. With a collage of many pictures, the booklet also looks rather old school. Altogether ‘Thrash Metal Is Violence’ is nothing new in metal land, but in general a highly entertaining album.

The many photos of the band partying and photos on which the gentlemen shamelessly show their bare beer bellies (no, they can’t top Tankard’s Gerre, yet), the short intro ‘Bestial Belch’ that only consists of a loud burp, and the youthful enthusiasm by which the songs are played prove that we are dealing with a bunch of fun-loving metal maniacs, who just do what they love. And that also deserves respect.

Por fín una de las bandas de old school thrash bestia y sin concesiones con más proyección de la península publican su primer larga duración, que contiene temas de sus tres demos más una "intro" y una versión de un tema de Postmortem (banda de thrash española de principios de los 90), "Questions". Pero a pesar de que a los que ya conocían a Omission sin duda los títulos le sonarán, no se trata de las versiones de las maquetas reeditadas, sino de una sesión de grabación totalmente nueva de comienzos del 2009, con la formación de la banda del año pasado (formación que ha cambiado ya que el bajista Julito dejó el grupo a finales del 2009). En consecuencia, esta vez (a diferencia de en "V.P.A." del 2008) la batería está grabada por Juanjo.


Por supuesto, en comparación con las demos, el sonido es mejor, más nítido, y eso es algo que estando acostumbrado a escuchar los temas de otra manera, al principio choca, y quizás a los más puristas (de esos que solo les gustan los primeros discos de Sodom y Kreator) les defraude. Pero pensándolo bien, los temas están mejor así, ya que podemos escuchar un montón de detalles en ellos que antes se perdían un poco (véase la reseña de "V.P.A.").


Pero independientemente de todo eso, "Thrash Metal Is Violence" es un disco de old school thrash de corte alemán/ europeo con temas magníficos, como "Primitive Instinct", el contundente "Satanicspeed Thrash Metal" o "Pure Fucking Hate", entre otros, que hacen que merezca la pena tener este disco en la colección. Llama un poco la atencíon que aparezcan más temas de la demo "Day of Your Death Arrives" que de la más reciente "V.P.A.". ¿Una pista de como va a sonar el próximo material de Omission... ? Esperemos que no tardemos en saberlo.
