No Colours Records - 15 Years Jubileum Metal Attack Vol.1
(No Colours Records)
78:55min

Compilations… some of those are legendary amongst Metal fans…"Grind Crusher", "In The Eyes Of Death", "Death Is Just The Beginning", "Metal Massacre"… you name it, but compilations are an important sign of labels that want to expose their bands in a form that only compilations can do. So, now after many years of formation, we have the first compilation of Germany’s No Colours Records, covering most of their catalogue, and a wide gamut of Metal styles in here. I suppose that most tracks were chosen to appear, be it because of their duration, or that they are representative of the band. Basically the label has been home of evil Black Metal bands, like in the case of SATANIC WARMASTER (the Finish goats of hate), IUVENES (BATHORY Epic Metal worshippers), ALASTOR (good old fashioned Black Metal) and INQUISITION (fantastic brutal Black Metal), but they are also doing some good old fashioned Death Metal like THORON (very good by the way, old school Swedish Döds Metal!), MOONDARK (and old recording of an old band) DIABOLIC FORCE (more in the Deathrash vein) and THOSE WHO BRING THE TORTURE (more Döds Metal!), NEBIROS (bestial Death / Black). Of course there are more Black Metal bands, and some more into the more instrumental vein like the intro which is a track by INVICTUS or the outro performed by LORD WIND. A couple of bands really offer nothing at all (BE PERSECUTED although exotic for being a band from China, it is just quite generic) but this serves well as a presentation of what this label offers. Other bands featured are ORENDA, FORTÍÐ, MURK, TYMAH, I SHALT BECOME, NETTLECARRIER. As a way to take a listen to the label, this is a great idea, as few underground labels take consideration of compilations nowadays. I am sure that many people will find great discoveries here.
