SINISTER
"Savage
or Grace" (Nuclear Blast)
Reviewed by Mike SOS
Sinister plays the type of blistering death metal that you'd expect to hear in a secluded wooded area while an animal sacrifice was taking place. Nine tracks of ruthless guitar chugging, bellowing vocal growls, and a fair share of blast-beated percussive madness is delivered here, and - with song titles like "Barbaric Order" and "Chapel Desecration" - don't look for Sinister to be performing at any church functions in the near future.
Heinous and havoc wreaking, "Savage or Grace" provides all the savagery without any of the salvation.

Rating Guide:
A classic. This record will kick your ass.
Killer. Not a classic but it will rock your world.
So-so. You've heard better.
Pretty bad. Might make a nice coaster.
Self explanatory. Just the sight of the cover makes you wanna hurl.
