Revenge for the Innocent

Unbound comes from Germany and plays doom metal. And now more details. This doom what Unbound plays is not typical, slow doom where every song is long as hell and takes a long, long time. Their music isn't stoner/doom too, it is rather groove doom containing tasty rhythm section, good heaviness and dose of solid metal aggression.
These 11 tracks which "Revenge For The Innocent" contains take only three quarters and they are enough intense and catchy. Of course these tunes are not typical, they are more brutal and less melodic. Unbound's music is intense like crashing train that hit into the wall. The result of this crash is new, twisted shape, I mean that their music sounds like Cathedral crashing into Pantera. Sounds strange? Of course doesn't! Sabbath-like riffs which sometimes sounds like taken alive from "Wolverine Blues", they are enough heavy to devastate your ears. Though I don't like Pantera's music, I like this one made by Unbound band. The vocal lines of Marcel Stefanec remind me sometimes Phil Anselmo's sound of vocal, although Stefanec growls first of all, in some fragments he sings more melodically just like Petrov done on "Wolverine Blues".
For the other hand you can describe their music like extremely slow down of Testament's music from "Low" album. The Achim Tillman guitar work sometimes reminds me the Petersen's riffs from "Low", but in slower ways. Music from "Revenge..." is caught by a great dose of groove and death n' roll feeling. This doom makes you cannot sleep! It wakes you up! There are not very slow tempos but rather the average ones, most vital and fresh. Only the last track "Godless" sounds like a typical doom metal song. There is not any needless bonus like flutes or keyboards, but only pure wall of noise! I like it! But if it is "Days Of Supression" full of aggressive groove and HC touches or little more vital "King Slave" there is always power in it. But next two tracks "Sea Of Flames" and "Act Under Pressure" contain more slower, cathedral-like parts. Other one "Rise" starts up with influences taken from "Negatron" album of Voivod, there are some clean vocals in it what is a new element in Unbound's music. "Back To Start" surprises by psychedelic atmosphere due to beginning of the song when you can hear only bass guitar and drums sound with a subtle echo. Marcel starts to use various vocals again, for the first time sings clean parts with the psychedelic Voivod - like guitars, for the second time joins Anselmo's style with death metal growling in chorus.
You can divide "Revenge..." into both parts: the first one full of average, beating tempos and hardcore feeling and second one, more experimental part full of Voivod and Celtic Frost riffing and various ways of singing. Whole album is joined by solid metal aggression and specific sound. This is not typical album for typical doomsters, but more noisy, more aggressive one with faster beats and more metallic stuff.
