But not only it looks good. In terms of content Captive Breeding is extremely successful. On a total of 13 songs, which in the intersection between power metal and thrash metal move (with a clear tendency towards the latter), it let the guys from North Rhine-Westphalia big blast.
You can compare the band was founded in 1996 most likely with the scene veterans Metallica, Kreator and Testament. Just listen to the opening times double regression of the art and Tongues Of Cleavage at. Both songs are good speed going forward, yet also remains room for melody.
The band does not press throughout the accelerator. For example Incarnation evolving from a hard grooving song only in the lower third to thrash grenade. In addition to pure thrash metal guitar riffs and aggressive vocals can be on Captive Breeding also Blind Guardian as an influence (especially in Candor Hurts and in parts in The End) in sound make. Every now and then it even sounds quite modern from the speakers (Deadmans Theories), but without the modern metal drift fields.
Perzonal War seem to have mixed and found her own style of the mentioned influences. Within this they bring enough variety in their songs, so your entertainment. Here certainly distinguishes the longstanding experience of the band members from even if there has been over the years, one or two line-up changes.
Bottom line Captive Breeding is a strong metal album, with the Perzonal War fans will be disappointed in any way. But even those who do not yet know the band and swear by a blend of power and thrash metal, are in this work have their joy.
