Havok - Conformicide [2LP Purple]After releasing three studio albums (2009's Burn, 2011's Time is Up, and 2013's Unnatural Selection) and one EP (2012's Point of No Return) on Candlelight Records, Havok struck a deal with Century Media Records, and made their return after four long years with their latest arsenal of blistering modern thrash metal mayhem entitled "Conformicide."

After releasing three studio albums (2009's Burn, 2011's Time is Up, and 2013's Unnatural Selection) and one EP (2012's Point of No Return) on Candlelight Records, Havok struck a deal with Century Media Records, and made their return after four long years with their latest arsenal of blistering modern thrash metal mayhem entitled "Conformicide."

From start to finish, "Conformicide" is a fantastic beast of an album that shreds and thrashes like an angry, rabid beast with ten unstoppable tracks (plus two bonus tracks) that are drenched in politically charged lyrics, wicked, ear-shattering vocals, along with ferocious, speaker shredding, ear-piercing, thrash-induced riffs and killer, blazing, shredding leads and solos, slap-heavy, eye-popping, funky, pounding bass lines, and storming, heart-pounding, ripping technical double bass drumming all throughout each song. David Sanchez is easily one of the best vocalists in thrash metal today.

His vocal deliveries I would say remind me of a combination between Megadeth's Dave Mustaine's gritty and snarly yet melodic vocal style, and Exodus Steve Souza's savagely angry and violent, screechy, throat-ripping screams. Overall, Sanchez's vocals are venomous throughout. The musicianship on "Conformicide" is just absolutely fantastic here. Reece Scruggs is also in top form with his blistering, shredding and hot-smoking leads & solos as well. Meanwhile, the band's rhythm section is also worth mentioning too.

Enter new bassist Nick Schendzielos (formerly of Cephalic Carnage and Job For a Cowboy) as he just makes his presence felt here with his incredibly awesome, slap-heavy, ear-pounding and hard, funky bass playing that would really make Les Claypool, Geddy Lee, Robert Trujillo and even Flea all mighty proud. And meanwhile, skinsman Pete Webber rounds off Havok's rhythm section as he beats and pounds his way through each track with his tight, powerful, technical, pummeling and ripping double bass drumming. All in all, each member is in absolute top form throughout this album. The albums biggest standout has to be the 7 minute, 41 second fifth track, "Ingsoc" which is lyrically inspired by George Orwell's 1949 dystopian novel entitled "1984." "Ingsoc" breaks up the straightforward thrash attack with some more groovy/thrash adding a touch of prog that features an extremely enjoyable, headbanging-worthy, crunchy and chuggy, groove-laden, awesome rib cracking bass lines, and stomping, mid-paced double-time drumming all lead by Sanchez's angry and torturous screams.

The "1984" Orwellian chorus in this song is very memorable, but the main highlight has to be the awesome, shredding soloing and soaring twin harmony leads that all take place before the final chorus. With "Conformicide," Havok took a huge risk by adding different elements and influences to their already savagely blistering thrash metal sound, and it paid off big time.

"Conformicide" is a brutal, balls-to-the-wall assault of pure thrash metal mayhem that gets better and better with every listen, and it also continues a great, strong run of albums by these young Colorado modern thrashers. If you are looking for the same feeling you got when you first played Master of Puppets or Peace Sells... look no further! The 2024 Brutal Planet Records Metal Icon Series 2-LP Purple Vinyl reissue comes in a deluxe gatefold with lyrics and pics, remastered to perfection. Limited to just 300 copies! This album is a true thrash metal classic to be revered for years to come. Highly Recommended!!! HORNS UP!!! \m/ \m/

Addictive as almond M&M's
Format: Paperback
I once read a book that blew the whistle on the abuses in the system that produces young elite figure skaters and gymnasts. One mother said of another mother that she was very likeable, but she'd cut your throat behind your back. That describes a lot of Freida McFadden's heroines (and their besties) to a t. At least one of the following always occurs in these novels. 1. If someone says, "Eh, I'm sure it's nothing," it's not. If someone believes their husband is too busy working to have an affair, he isn't. If someone suspects a knife is missing from the block, it is. 2. If a child or teen bitterly complains of being a victim of peer conflict, there's a good chance he/she is the instigator. They may even have committed or assisted in a murder in the past. 3. At some point, you will be told point blank that the character you have just spent a good chunk of the book with is the polar opposite. And even if you're familiar with the books, it may come as at least a partial surprise since this doesn't occur in most novels. 4. Everyone in the book has a secret, even if it's just hair dye. 5. There's also what I call the "Cold Case" rule: Don't argue near stairs. Ever. But I digress. At first, happily married to a great guy Naomi Roth doesn't really protest when her husband Jeremy, after having changed the locks, insists that she go and stay at the apartment he bought for his now-deceased parents. She believes, despite a few stray doubts, that he is telling the truth when he says that it's just renovations and that it will be better this way - and he's even thoughtfully packed for her. However, soon after that, Naomi is told in no uncertain terms that Jeremy wants a divorce, which makes her a pariah with her fellow mothers, except one. Is her husband having an affair, and if so, what secrets does his mistress have? And who the heck committed the murder in the preface (there's almost one in every book, so it isn't much of a spoiler)? As always, the author makes writing fiction look effortless, which if you've actually sat down to write some, know it usually isn't. Another addictive read.

Calling all Freida Fans!!!
Format: Kindle
4.5 stars!!!! Mrs. Freida McFadden Fans!!! This book was soooooo good!!! I started reading last night thinking I will read a few chapters before bed. Well, it is 2am 😊 so, I couldn’t put it down. All the characters are despicable…but it a good way. I had this one figured out; I did, and BAM! No I didn’t…then, twist after twist after oh s*** twist!!! Poor Ezra…sweet little Teddy….the rest, all despicable, but like I said; in such a wonderfully twisty way!!! Naomi husband decides out of nowhere he wants a divorce. She later finds out there “is” another woman; Veronica. Their son Teddy gets shuffled back and forth from Jeremy's house to Naomi’s apartment, and……

Heartbreaking and beautiful
Format: Kindle
This book reads like living. I was able to be Sybil, not just observe her. I found the experience of reading her story authentic and cathartic in a way. At the middle of my life it provoked a sense that’s there can be goodness and purpose in aging.

Beautifully written and unique conversational format
Format: Hardcover
This was a great read—sad, but very well done. I really enjoyed the conversational format, since I’ve never read a book told in quite that way before. It felt fresh and different, and the writing was excellent. Overall, it was a very engaging and memorable book.
