Mortal Sin (Aus) - Mayhemic Destruction (1987)


Mortal Sin (Aus) - Mayhemic Destruction (1987)

Apparently Australia's finest Metal band, but I can think of many other bands better than these guys.  I'd say its the most well known Metal band, Australia's answer to Metallica.  In saying that, this is such a good album, rivaling Metallica on either Ride The Lightning or to a lesser extent Master Of Puppets.  The guitars have that perfect cutting tone and the bass and drums are heavy as fuck.  Not a single average track on the album.  Lebanon is a long epic with an intro that is up there with some of the best intro riffs ever.  Then you have the title track, Mayhemic Destruction, which is a little strange as in it feels like the rest of the album but is a lot more aggressive and sounds almost like Kreator at times.  Again, not a bad thing.  Too bad they wen't exponentially downhill on their next album.
