This is a review of another recording f rom Acid Death that continues the progressive mixture of death and thrash metal and this album was originally released in 2000 and called 'Random's Manifest" and was re-issued in 2016 by Copro Records.
Atmospheric synths start off the album before going into a very fast thrash influenced direction along with some death metal growls a few seconds later and you can also hear a lot of Brazilian influences in the bands musical style while a lot of the riffing has a style that was very technical for the 90's.
All of t he musical instruments on the recording have a very powerful sound to t hem along with the solos and leads giving the songs a progressive metal touch and throughout the recording you can hear a great mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts and the songs also add in a decent amount of prog style synths that also gives the music a more sci fi atmosphere,
Clean playing and avant garde jazz elements are added into some parts of the music and a couple of the songs are very long and epic in length and as the album progresses acoustic guitars can also be heard in certain sections of the recording and the heavier riffs also bring in a great amount of melody and some of the guitar leads also add in classic metal touches and clean singing can also be heard briefly and a couple of the later tracks are all instrumental.
On this recording Acid Death remained true to their progressive mixture of death and thrash metal while also making the music sound more modern than the previous release reviewed, the production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover philosophy, apocalypse, and destruction themes.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from Acid Death and if you are a fan of progressive, death and thrash metal, you should check out this re-issue. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Perfect Enemy" "Curse The Flesh" "Teach To Kill" and "W.A.R(Wong And Right)'. 8 out of 10.
