Zoetrope – Amnesty, 1999 CD Album Reissue Remastered Century Media – 66048-2 Nobody expects the speed metal inquisition! One of the hottest zerrest years was 1985 and Amnesty is one of the reasons why. At the pinnacle of the peak of the highest altitudes of the zerrest of speed metal, there were Hallows Eve, Exciter, Abattoir and Zoetrope and 7500 others, but especially Zoetrope, who were in the classic trio of bands whose singer is also the drummer or vice-versa (Warfare, Exciter, Zoetrope, zer!). Amnesty is an addictive attack of rocking crispiness and catchy loads of street metal. It’s boiling with energy, memorable hooks and burning execution. It’s as sweet as it is rough. It is a gift from the universe to itself. Master thing to bang a head to! My unconditional love for this record has transformed into eternal worship considering it has aged perfectly and leaves nothing to the retro trend. Life of crime delivers a similar array of crunchy tunes, while Mind over splatter is sort of colder and meaner, but Amnesty remains the top of the top (and the CD reissue contains older demos, more zer). Classic albums, killer Zoetrope forever and rezer!!! !ZER Zoetrope ZER! Remove brackets and unzip: [speedmetal1985rezer] |

More CD rips from previously posted LP rips:
From the legendary Inferno, Germany’s answer to Broken Bones, absolut Kaisers of hardcore thrash, swallow the amazing official double CD almost-discography compilation: Aaaarrrrrghhhhhh here are again the early magnificent Zoetrope records and demos, which define CLASSIC SPEED METAL! I never have enough of Amnesty! Fuck yeah! Another piece of hardcore History with this United Mutation compilation, it’s so good it’s almost indecent. GISM and Septic Death addicts will enjoy bodily fluids accelerations. Last but not least the 3rd and probably best (zer-wise) Nasty Savage album, the twisted and juicy thrash engine |

amnesty + a life of crime, USA 1985/1987 To make it short, ‘Amnesty’ goes straight to the main room of the Speed Metal Hall of Fame at Abattoir ‘Vicious Attack’ level. Too fucking hot metal with an Articles Of Faith influence. CLASSIC ZER!!! ‘A life of crime’ is almost as great. Enjoy early Metallica/Slayer speed metal! The Century media CD reissues have lots of bonus demo tracks. This is the vinyl rip. I’ll upload the 3rd lp ‘Mind Over Splatter’ shortly. |
