Septekh are a band from Sweden that has been featured before that plays a mixture of death and thrash metal with some black metal influences and this is a review of their 2014 album "Plan For World Domination" which was released as a joint effort between Studio 508 Productions and Abyss Records.
A very heavy, aggressive and melodic old school death/thrash sound starts off the album along with some high pitched screams and blast beats and you can also hear growls and a small amount of punk influences before adding in early 80's metal/rock guitar solos and leads and powerful bass lines.
The band gores back to t he early to mid 80's with the sound on this recording with the vocals being more close to modern death/black metal and they also bring in a mixture of slow, mid paced and fast songs as well as mixing in elements of NWOBHM with their death/thrash metal sound as well as going back to the 70's in certain sections of the recording and on some of the tracks you can hear a small amount of back up shouts.
Later on during the recording the band starts mixing some modern elements with their old school death/thrash sound and mixing in a more raw sound and the bass guitars bring an Iron Maiden meets Motorhead sound to the recording and the last track is over 10 minutes in length.
Septekh remains true to its melodic and raw old school death/thrash metal sound while still having a black metal feeling in the vocals along with a powerful sounding production and lyrics that cover violent and hateful themes.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from Spetekh and if you are a fan of raw and aggressive death/thrash metal, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Into the Void Of My Mind" "Don Asshole" "Eyes of the Grave" and "Plan For World Domination". 8 out of 10.
