Sacrifice
Apocalypse Inside
[Metal Blade]
Sadly, this album was to be the last time that these
Canadian Thrash warriors would record. “Apocalypse
Inside” is the last chapter in the saga of great
Thrash albums that Sacrifice graced this pathetic
world with.
Production on this album is very clear and crunchy.
Vocals, guitars and drums are all well mixed, which
gives this album a good overall fell. Urbinati
approaches the vocal duties in the same way that he
did on “Soldiers Of Misfortune”, that is, hellish
shrieks of terror and rage. Sacrifice capture more of
a melodic feel on some of the tracks, but still have
there moments of great thrash and head smashing chunk.
All of the songs on this album are good but only a few
really stand out. “Apocalypse Inside” gives a great
taste of what the band sounds like with a dose of
melody, but still offers the aggression of past
Sacrifice efforts. “Beneath What You See” and “Freedom
Slave” are 2 other standouts on this album, both
taking there rightful place in the annals of Thrash
Metal history. Sacrifice have yet again produced a
great album, but this is probably there poorest
effort. Fans should remember however, that a poor
effort for Sacrifice, is better then a good effort
from most other bands.
