Our Take

Cryptic Slaughter's "Speak Your Peace" is like a sonic punch to the gut. This album is a whirlwind of thrash and hardcore punk that will leave you breathless and begging for more. From the blistering guitar riffs to the frenetic drumming, every track on this record is a mosh pit waiting to happen.

Lead vocalist Bill Croyle's snarling delivery adds an extra layer of intensity to the already ferocious music. His lyrics, though at times cryptic (pun intended), cut through the noise with raw emotion and conviction. Whether he's railing against societal injustice or just letting loose with some good old-fashioned rage, Croyle's words hit hard and hit fast.

The production on "Speak Your Peace" is rough around the edges, but that just adds to the album's punk authenticity. This isn't polished pop music - this is raw, unfiltered aggression set to a blistering soundtrack. The lo-fi quality of the recording only serves to enhance the band's DIY ethos and rebellious spirit.

Overall, "Speak Your Peace" is a must-listen for any fan of hardcore punk or thrash metal. Cryptic Slaughter have crafted a truly no-holds-barred experience that will leave you reeling and coming back for more. So put on your leather jacket, lace up your boots, and prepare to thrash like there's no tomorrow. This is one ride you won't want to miss.

About the artist

Cryptic Slaughter

CRYPTIC SLAUGHTER are the enigmatic force of nature that the thrash metal scene didn't know it needed. Hailing from California, this band burst onto the scene in the mid-1980s with their ferocious speed, blistering riffs, and relentless energy. Imagine if a tornado made entirely of angry bees decided to form a band - that's CRYPTIC SLAUGHTER in a nutshell. Their sound is chaotic, raw, and utterly electric, with frontman Bill Crooks' vocals cutting through the chaos like a knife through butter. While other thrash bands were content to stick to the tried and tested formula, CRYPTIC SLAUGHTER were always pushing the boundaries of what was considered acceptable in the genre. Their lyrics were dark, politically charged, and often downright bizarre - but somehow, it all worked. Their debut album, "Convicted," is a blistering masterpiece of thrash metal mayhem, with tracks like "M.A.D." and "Nuclear Future" cementing their status as one of the most exciting bands in the scene. And their live shows? Good luck trying to keep up with the mosh pit. After a brief hiatus in the '90s, CRYPTIC SLAUGHTER returned in 2003 to the delight of fans old and new. Their legacy as one of the pioneers of crossover thrash is secure, and their influence can be felt in countless bands that have followed in their wake. In a world of pretenders and posers, CRYPTIC SLAUGHTER stand tall as the real deal. So crank up the volume, grab a beer, and prepare to have your face melted off - this is thrash metal at its finest.
