Pissing Razors Again

10/16/2009
.
(MMP) Pissing Razors invaded the metal scene in the early 1990's, delivering a powerful dose of modern, groove oriented thrash metal. Throughout the eight years of their career, the band released six LPs and one live album, with each time pushing their style into a new level of progression.

These exclusive re-releases of Pissing Razors' last three offerings: "Where We Come From", "Live In The Devil's Triangle" and "Evolution", introduce a group whose musical talent place them right next to such giants as Pantera, Machine Head or Fear Factory…

"Where We Come From", "Live In The Devil's Triangle" and "Evolution" remain the last efforts of Pissing Razors – the post thrash phenomenon that will always be remembered for their raw and uncompromising style… Metal Mind Productions will re-release the albums on 2nd November in a new digipak edition, each limited to 1000 copies. Digitally remastered using 24-Bit process on a golden disc.

"Where We Come From" (2001)
Pissing Razors' fourth LP showcased a lot more diversity than the previous offerings, at the same time retaining the old-school metal approach which became the band's trademark throughout the years. The title "Where We Come From" was not accidental – such tracks as "Burning Bridges" and "Opportunidad" are clearly inspired by Pantera's stomping groove, while "Keep to Myself" resembles the early style of Fear Factory.

"Live In The Devil's Triangle" (2002)
Covering a performance in El Paso from September 6th, 2002, the live LP brought sixteen tracks from Pissing Razors' catalogue, played with amazing energy and aggression, once and for all proving that the band sounds as good (if not better!) as on the studio albums. Ascota's hardcore-influenced vocals fitted the music perfectly, making it even more brutal than usual (especially with such bone-crushing tracks as "World of Deceit", "Fork Tongue" and "Justice Denied"). Overall, "Live In The Devil's Triangle" became a valuable addition to Pissing razors' discography, capturing the true essence of the band's charismatic performances.

"Evolution" (2003)
The group returned in 2003 with their sixth opus – "Evolution". The album showcased some definite sound progression, with Tool-influenced song twists enhancing the groove-driven thrash metal style. Vocalist Andre Ascota delivered his best on this release, with a voice ranging from Pro-Pain's Gary Meskil to Pantera's Phil Anselmo. Most of the tracks were a bit slower than on the previous albums, but they haven't lost the crushing heaviness that was always a part of Pissing Razors' music. Perhaps the most intriguing song on "Evolution" is the title track (featured on the album in two versions, one of which is sung in Spanish), which delivers a surprising mix of Metallica and Iron Maiden-influenced riffage.
