Betrayed - The Unbeliever (2021)


The mighty Betrayed…another cool thrash metal act from the chilean scene has managed to produce during these past years. The first track follows suit with the intricately woven, fast-paced rifforamas and blazing virtuoso leads, apocalyptic mean vocals. This is the ultimate technical shredfest, brilliant stomping mid-break and memorable chorus, also cavernous atmosphere make this piece a mandatory listen for thrash metal lovers. This album is a vigorous headbanger with pounding interludes. Vocals sound evil and full of hate on this record. The lyrical themes explored on this album deal heavily with political topics such as government and corruption as well as other horror themes like murder and nightmares. Overall a tremendous album.  In conclusion this is metal music for the thinking metal listener or someone looking for technical music filled with ferocity. This album made Betrayed be noticed as a ferocious force in the Southamerican thrash metal scene!

Standouts: "Panic Attack" "Looters Will be Shoot" and "Constitution"
