Killer is a
Belgian trio that harks back to the 80s and killer albums like Ready For Hell,
Shockwaves and Wall of Sound. They were sort of a Motörhead with slightly
cleaner vocals. Well, guitarist/singer Paul “Shorty” Van Camp still keeps the
flame alight. Their early albums were released on the notorious Mausoleum
label, and so is the new album. This killer is back to the scene of the crime.
Well, that goes for the music as well. Not much has happened here, and I tell
you, that’s a good thing! Shorty sounds as good as ever, the songs are pounding
and the sound is classic balls to the wall metal. Kicking off with the title
track and No Exception To The Rule they prove there’s not much water that have
passed under these bridges. Powerful, straight ahead, no frills, kick in the nut
metal! Shotgun Symphony starts off as a heavy, detuned and doomy riffster, but
picks up pace after the intro and moves into classic stomping Judas Priest
British Steel territory. Good nostalgia tickling stuff, indeed!
