Review: CD

The Brazilian band Claustrofobia started in 1996 and shared the stage with bands as, for example, Sepultura, Napalm Death, Vader, Hate Eternal and Krisiun. This newest Thrash-anthem lasts for over fifty two minutes and still shows no mercy. I See Red stands for Death-injected Thrash Terror with brutal grunts, a Hardcore-attitude and a well-thought old school-oriented technical approach. Most parts are rather ‘random’, yet a few fine and subtle nuances (like unusual solos, contradictory breaks and hyper-speed outbursts) enlighten the whole. Or is it ‘endarken’? Never mind… the members are experienced guys and their will to create an own sound pays.

75/100
