One of the best unsigned thrash bands has another custom tape release, and it shows continued growth and change. Vocalist Glenn Johnson brings the band closer to a death metal sound than before, while the rest of the band shreds through these six songs with a flurry of speed and tightness, as "Image of Deception" comes off as a musical tip of the hat to Believer (how many other bands can do that?) with its relentless time changes and Kurt Bachman-like growl. The epic-length song "Sayings of the Wise" covers a lot of ground and features some killer lead guitar excursions. This rhythm section keeps getting better and better with every tape released. For those wanting names to go with the music, the rhythm section is: Rob Ojeda on bass, James Chaves on guitar, Ashley Lawhon on drums and vocalist Glenn Johnson playing guitar as well. Fans of the underground would not go wrong in following this band with each new release. To order, send $7 (checks made out to James Chavez) to: 2114 Yale Avenue, Wichita Falls TX 76301.

HM Magazine #109Reviewed by Matt MorrowRemember Believer? I'm sure you do. Well, if you were crazy about Believer, you should definitely pick this disc up. Bombworks Records has re-released the old Consecrator demos and this is some absolutely killer thrash that will have you convinced that it was actually Believer recording under a different name. How this band never got signed to a huge label is beyond me. Fantastic stuff! Editors'…Similar sounding releases
