DR2 Records/Underclass Release : October 2008 Tracklist « Razorhead » : The Summoning Razorhead Premonition Headtrap Gods Of Deception Night Terror The Chamber Divides Us Nothing Lasts Forever Devil’s Anvil Blood And Pain Another Bullet Bloodlines Hell On Earth Marshall Law, which exists since 1987, comes back in the front scene with “Razorhead”. It is a heavy metal album at the same times aggressive and melodic. The tracks are in great majority heavy and powerful with a thrashy side in the riffs. The riffs are very good and given in a hand’s master. The album is a good mix between heavy and powerful songs, fast tracks and even a more than melodic ballad « Nothing Lasts Forever », full of feelings, nearly dark. If the tracks are varied, the vocals are also varied, powerful, melodic, sometimes a little theatrical, other times with special effects which give them a futurist side. The album has the benefit of a good production giving back all the power of the tracks. At the end it is a powerful, refreshing album even if it is not entirely innovative.
