It’s no longer a secret that Enforced are a band of great potential that unleash an onslaught at every opportunity they get, with every release.
A thrash/crossover war whose purpose is to destroy us and especially the unsuspecting.
With “At the Walls” and “Kill Grid”, 2019, 2021 respectively, those who didn’t taste it or those who said “ok where can they get to”, comes the third attack in a row to level all doubt.
“War Remains” and you don’t know where it comes from. We are in the crossfire and there is no possibility of reaction.
It is the storm of riffs, which if there was a riff machine programmed in Slayer, Sepultura, Power Trip mode, it would be called Enforced.
Ten 34-minute tracks, that’s how long Enforced need to flatten everything in their path without a trace of pity.
Honest thrash production, which conveys all the emotion to our speakers.
Furious vocals that echo the lyrics that refer to the wretchedness of our society.
The drum beat keeps the tempo mostly fast with some slower bridges.
We talked about the guitars and riffs and it’s good to hear for yourself, the endless inspiration and how they follow each other.
Certainly, the entire atmosphere of the album manages to be the one that its composers aimed for from the beginning, that is, war.
In general, thrash has been on the rise in recent years and why not Enforced become the leaders. After all, they have all the elements you need.
In general, “War Remains” came to establish Enforced, among the best thrash bands of today.
