What a convincing title for Scepter's newest
offering! I'm already thinking Manowar or perhaps Warrior-era Unleashed
(Death Metal Victory!) with just the 1st riff on "Fucking Metal
Motherfuckers". Scepter is not really death metal, rather a thrash
metal trio from the US of A and probably one of the more anti-trend
underground bands outside of the black and death metal scenes. Their
music really isn't anything special aside from the otherwise pit-friendly
heavy & catchy power-chord riffs. I don't think it's about the
musicianship at all, though. It's simply and purely about the message,
which is self-explanatory. A few notable tracks on the album are Lowest
Common Denominator, Age of Consent, and the convincing title track.
There are some very nice arrangements and a few solos in the mix as
well. However, Scepter is very much meant to be played loud and not
meant for any sort of lyrical or diverse listening pleasure. I would
like to see how they sound live 'cause I'm sure the pit would be awesome!
