This is the final review of a recording from Greece's Acid Death which is also in the a more mixture of death and thrash metal and the ep was originally released in 2008 and consists of material recorded in 92 that was unreleased and called "Balance Of Power" and was re-issued in 2017 by Floga Records.
Atmospheric soundscapes along with some avant garde style keyboards start off the ep and after the intro the music gets a lot more heavier along with some melodic guitar leads also being added onto the recording and all of the musical instruments also sound very powerful along with some elements of thrash.
When the music speeds up a decent amount of blast beats can be heard and after awhile death metal growls start to make their presence known and the music is also very heavily rooted in the mid 80's and the songs also bring in a great mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts and acoustic guitars are added onto the closing track which also adds in a small amount of spoken word parts.
On this recording Acid Death went for more of a straightforward death/thrash approach which was different from their more progressive mixture, the production has a demo feeling while the lyrics cover philosophy, apocalypse, and destruction themes.
In my opinion this was a very great sounding recording from Acid Death and if you are a fan of death and thrash metal, you should check out this ep. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Apathy Murders Hope" and "Twilight Spirits". 8 out of 10.
