Album number eight, but hardly any surprises. Bay Area thrashers Death Angel continue their characteristic style of Metal on The Evil Divide just as they have done four times before since their reunion: heavy and fast assaults are balanced by melodic and even emotional songs and make every album a feast for Metal fans. In comparison, The Evil Divide is not as good as its predecessors because the sound is very cold and modern and highlights are missing (the signature tracks that stand out and make one put the album on time and again). But still, The Evil Divide is nothing less than a very good Thrash album and a must for connoisseurs of the genre.

Frank was a reviewer here at Metal Express Radio, based out of Bavaria, Germany. He has worked in the games industry for more than 20 years, now on the manufacturing side, before on the publishing end. Before this, he edited and handled the layout for a city mag in northern Germany ... maybe that is why he love being part of anything published. Frank got hooked on Metal at the age of 14 when a friend introduced him to AC/DC. They were listening to The Beatles, Madness, and The Police, and he decided they should move on. Well, they did, Back in Black became Frank's first Metal album, and since Germany is reasonably close to England, they had some small New Waves Of British Heavy Metal washing up on their shores: Tygers Of Pan Tang, Samson, Gillan, Iron Maiden, Saxon, Sweet Savage, Diamond Head, etc. If he had to pick his favorite styles, Prog and Power Metal would be at the top of the list.
