9th album from 2013 by the Brazilian-American SOULFLY, an intense blast of Groove Metal with elements of Thrash and Death Metal that combines heavy riffs, tribal grooves and a much more direct aggression than in previous releases. “Savages” finds the band in a more forceful and modern phase, with powerful production and a darker, more extreme approach within their signature style.
The album alternates crushing mid-tempos with faster, more aggressive sections, featuring guest vocal appearances and a dynamic that reinforces its violent and raw character. It preserves SOULFLY’s tribal DNA while pushing it into heavier, more extreme Metal territory.
Recommended for fans of SEPULTURA, CHIMAIRA, LAMB OF GOD and DEVILDRIVER.
