Warlord U.K are a band from the United Kingdom that plays a mixture of death and thrash metal and this is a review of their 1996 album "Maximum Carnage" which was re-issue in 2016 by Transcending Obscurity Records.
Dark sound effects start off the album before going into more of a heavier and melodic musical direction and you can also hear all of the musical instruments that are present on the recording and after awhile death metal growls are added onto the recording and when the music speeds up a great amount of blast beats can be heard.
A great amount of thrash influences can be heard quite a bit throughout the recording and the songs also bring in a great mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts and screams can also be heard at times and when guitar solos and leads are utilized they are done in a very melodic fashion and there is also a brief use of spoken word parts while a later track adds in a small amount of classical guitars and they close the album with 2 live bonus tracks.
Warlord U.K played a style of death metal on this recording that was done in the British style but also standing out a bit more with the thrash influence, the production sounds very professional for the era it was released while the lyrics cover violent and political themes.
In my opinion Warlord U.K are a very great sounding mixture of death and thrash metal and if you are a fan of those musical genres, you should check out this band. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Maximum Carnage" "Alien Dictator" and "Race War". 8 out of 10.
