EXCRUCIATION BY SILENCE Metal Madness CD

Hailing from Moscow, Excruciation by Silence delivers a high-octane tribute to the golden era of Speed and Thrash Metal with their full-length debut, Metal Madness. Released via the Italian label Punishment 18 Records, this album is a relentless sonic assault that bridges the gap between technical precision and old-school attitude. The band’s sound evolved from their early technical thrash roots into a more direct, aggressive, and anthemic style, drawing comparisons to the speed of Vektor and the razor-sharp riffing of classic Megadeth. With tracks like Death to False Metal and Heavy Metal Army, the record is an unapologetic manifesto of the metal lifestyle, featuring blistering solos, frantic percussion, and a raw energy that never lets up. Closing with a cover of Stand and Die by the US band The Regime, Metal Madness is an essential listen for those who demand their thrash metal fast, loud, and uncompromisingly traditional.
