Evil Army’s self-titled full-length is a masterclass in no-nonsense thrash—fueled by punk energy, drenched in street grit, and built on a foundation of raw aggression. Hailing from Memphis, these guys aren't here to charm the scene or ride a revival wave—they are the revival. Thirteen tracks, twenty-five minutes, zero filler. This is the kind of record that doesn’t ask for your attention—it demands it.
What sets Evil Army apart is its complete lack of pretension. There’s no attempt at being slick or modern—just fast, nasty, and tight songwriting straight out of the school of early Metallica, Slayer, and D.R.I. From the opening moments of the title track, it’s a high-speed barrage of whiplash riffs, frenzied solos, and barked vocals that split the difference between thrash and hardcore. The band’s DIY roots and youthful venom shine through with every snare hit and gang chorus.
Tracks like “Edge of Destruction,” “Conquer Human Life,” and “Wrong Approach” are relentless—short, sharp shocks that feel like Molotovs hurled through a window of overproduced modern metal. The guitar tone is trebly and serrated, the drums organic and pounding, and Rob Evil’s vocals have that unhinged street snarl that cuts through everything like a boxcutter.
This isn’t music for genre tourists or nostalgia chasers. Evil Army captures the spirit of real underground thrash—raw, fast, and armed to the teeth. A vital reminder that sometimes, the most powerful statements are the most stripped down. No gimmicks. No gloss. Just pure, unfiltered metal fury. Essential listening for anyone who believes thrash should hurt a little.
