[three_fourth] Review By Ville Krannila \/ February 2016<\/strong><\/p>\n

Birmingham\u2019s Hostile have roots in the Midlands sharp as steel heavy metal industry. Their extreme metal while on the surface seems very different to Black Country\u2019s traditional bands, actually drives forward with same spirit and essence. Their first record \u201cEve Of Destruction\u201d was produced by none other than K.K. Downing and got positive reviews from all across the globe. Now it\u2019s time to see whether group\u2019s direction remains focused with all important second release \u201cThe New World Disorder.\u201d Downing has once again returned to the driver\u2019s seat and the overall scope remains the same so let\u2019s jump right in.<\/p>\n

There are only seven tracks on offer, the last being a cover of Judas Priest\u2019s \u201cBlood Stained.\u201d This helps to keep the end result tight and focused, with Hostile\u2019s musical style it is also somewhat of a necessity. \u201cThe New World Disorder\u201d continues band\u2019s Pantera-influenced route, with some more melodic and traditional elements thrown in. Compared to first record, this one is more versatile effort. Vocalist Jay Mills displays good sense of raw aggression and guitars by Ben Evans and AJ Mills saw and grind in perfect unison. Third track \u201cFreedom Act\u201d has smooth fast-paced rhythm and is a good indication where this group might be heading in the future.<\/p>\n

The album\u2019s relatively short length actually works in group\u2019s favour as intensity has more room to grow on you and listener can easily be drawn in for another spin. \u201cBlood Stained\u201d originating from Priest\u2019s 1997\u2019s \u201cJugulator\u201d album is a obvious choice for Hostile carrying slight Pantera-edge anyway. Band plays it faithfully and arrangement very close to the original song. I might have preferred a more different approach, but a good song is a good song no matter how many times you turn it around. Downing has pushed production focus on the song arrangements and dynamics, which shows. Sound picture is well balanced and songs ring loud enough.<\/p>\n

Hostile within genre has found comfortable spot to stand on. If anything the group might want to stretch their creative muscles even more with their next release. For now \u201cThe New World Disorder\u201d will certainly satisfy those graving for well-played groove and aggression added with a slight touch of sophistication.<\/p>\n
