Insanity Alert is an excellent thrash
metal band reminiscent of legends like Slayer and Dark Angel. They
have a pure old school thrash feel and make you want to mosh until
you die. Their music is fast and brutal with lots of insane riffs
that form the basis of the music. The raw speed of some of these
guitar riffs is pretty impressive. They are constructed to be easy to
headbang too, and can you help not too? Insanity Alert is one of the
headbangingest bands around. The bass work is rather heavy and the
solid playing of the bassist reminds me a lot of Tom Araya. He makes
everything more brutal, angrier, and overall scarier. The drum work
on this record is crazy, the fills come in ata mile a minute and the
double bass drum simply storms through. This bands drummer truly has
the thrash metal energy required to make this kind of music work. The
singing is aggressive and ripped. The singer has an old school thrash
growl that really reminds me of the singer of Exodus or even Death
Angel. He makes this band feel older than they actually are.
Meanwhile, the lyrics are all about the glories of metal or more
violent themes. Typical song titles are Glorious Thrash and Crucified
by Zombies. My personal favorite is Run To the Pit, a new twist on
the Iron Maiden classic which basically defines what I love so much
about heavy metal. In conclusion, Insanity Alert is fun, brutal and
headbanging. These guys are truly glorious thrashers, and remember
RUN TO THE PIT, MOSH FOR YOUR LIFE!
