Despite forming in 2013 and a couple demos and a split over those first few years, it wasn\u0092t until HELLCRASH\u0092s debut album, Krvcifix Invert\u00f6r, where the band started to make a dark name for itself. Released on vinyl by DYING VICTIMS in 2021, Krvcifix Invert\u00f6r proved HELLCRASH were a power-trio in the grand tradition of domestic legends Bulldozer, brewing a similarly sleazy (and EVIL) style of speed metal. Simple but sublime it was, and diehards definitely took notice. <\/p>\n
Now, two years later, arrives HELLCRASH\u0092s second album, Demonic Assassination. On first glance (and especially THAT COVER), it would seem that HELLCRASH are sticking to their guns, sowing the same seeds as earliest Slayer, Venom, and of course Bulldozer. Peer deeper and this latest expurse of sodomy shows that there\u0092s more \u0096 much more \u0096 to HELLCRASH\u0092s cauldron. Immediately, their attack\u0092s more refined here: some would call it \u0093cleaning up,\u0094 but the fine-tuning of songcraft and polishing of production have paid off in spades across Demonic Assassination. As such, there\u0092s far more variation in that songcraft \u0096 sometimes more speed metal, other times more thrash, or even metalpunk before it was such a thing, often all in the same song \u0096 and HELLCRASH ably finesse this transition with tighter execution that, thankfully, doesn\u0092t sacrifice an ounce of energy. In fact, if there\u0092s on guiding aspect here, it\u0092s energy: while HELLCRASH sometimes seem on the verge of self-combustion, so juiced-up is their rollercoaster sound, it all spills over into the listener as a celebration of filth, fury, and FUN. Could this be their The Final Separation? Perhaps\u0085 <\/p>\n
Still sick, still sleazy, and definitely still crude & rude, HELLCRASH are firing on ALL cylinders here, and not just the old ones. So, while the aforementioned references still apply, Demonic Assassination is equally recommended for maniacs of later GBH, Carnivore, Warfare, Crumbsuckers, and contemporaries Children of Technology. <\/p>\n
