Entrenched: Preemptive strike

15/07/11  ||  Lord K Philipson

Starting off this recording with the incredibly fresh idea of using air raid sirens set the tone for what’s to come; decently sounding death metal that’s not really the tightest around. Those air raid sirens are a part of the instrumental intro “Mobilize”. A tune that includes what I suppose it’s meant to be machine gun fire or something along those lines. The problem is the samples come across sounding like fucked up motorcycles. Not really the effect I believe they were after, haha… Besides that, Entrenched’s death metal is mid-paced-to-semi fast and sounds quite ok, I guess. Not a horrible effort, this, but also nothing you’ll want to go back to over and over again. Not when we have bands like Bolt Thrower and Hail Of Bullets doing this war themed death metal thing to perfection.

4/10: The most interesting aspect of this band is the fact that they are from New Jersey. I prefer Bon Jovi though when it comes to that city. Old Bon Jovi. The tr00 Bon Jovi.
