Formed in early 2009, Eradication haven’t wasted a second in showing us exactly what they’re capable of. Having already taken on the likes of The Boy Will Drown, Ingested and U.S. metal giants All Shall Perish on the stage this year the Essex quintet are currently making a name for themselves as the ones to look out for over the next 12 months.
It’s hard to pigeon-hole the band’s sound into one or even a handful of genres but the curious yet somewhat accurate; Death-tinged Melodic Thrash Metal is as close as one can get to define the bands own take on a selection of the most vicious elements of the metal sub-genres.
Drawing clear influence from such genre defining bands as The Black Dahlia Murder, Lamb of God, Chimaira and some early Metallica, these guys are a mouth-watering taste of fresh blood in the dried up corpse of the metal scene. Eradication are setting standards by the minute, high standards.
A brutal formula of Riff, Shred, Chug, Blast, Growl sees the band tear through everything in sight without a glance over their shoulders or a shred of remorse for what or who they see themselves faced with next.
From the frighteningly intense opening riffage of Rendered Useless to the painfully epic fade out of Extinction Is Inbound, this short but sweet EP is mind-blowing throughout and will leave you begging for more. Any die hard metal-heads who are yet to check these guys out are simply mad.
Wasting no time with boring intros, the EP jumps in head first with Rendered Useless featuring a frenzy of frantic riffing, furious drumming and gut wrenching dual vocals.
Eradication breeze seamlessly over earth-shattering breakdowns only to tear they way into the next skip-ridden, head bang inducing piece of thrash riff-work, worthy of the likes of Unearth and MachineHead.
The second track sees front-man Aston Reynolds spitting out a barrage of the most spine-tingling lyrics at a rate which leaves you reaching for an oxygen mask just listening to it, before a jaw-droppingly epic (and frankly spooky!) mid-section displays the bands ability to incorporate the most tear-jerking combination of melody and harmony as well as bringing a much welcome break from the savagery of the rest of the EP.
The band seem to really stick to their guns and do their own thing here. No pig vocals, no in-audibly detuned guitars, no synths, no gimmicks, no shit. This is just straight up Thrash Metal. Eradication are no slaves to trend and do not follow suit.
Extinction Is Inbound is just a taste of what is to come from Eradication and believe me, the next release from this band will turn heads, fast...and who said thrash was dead?!
