The debut of the Finns Mesetiah The Purpose Of Our Existence (2009) had raised STALKERs attention already, and the guys´ last names seem to indicate that it´s 2 sets of brothers who make noise here. The opening title track indicates what will be coming - Old School Death Metal plus Thrash riffs, groove dominates, spiced up with a good dose of blast beats. The guys from Kokkola mention e.g. Pantera, Crowbar, Six Feet Under as influences, and a mix of those would be the best way to describe the music. Technically top, the guys have what it takes - I just like them better when it´s less Old School (Eaten By The Sun) and rather Thrash (Bones in the Basement, The Inevitable). Razorblades for Breakfast and No Rest for the Dead have a real sick ear-candy-appeal. But it´s only Gruesome Blues that sticks out - my personal highlight: all elements mentioned plus pretty melodic riffs and other effects ("Slide"-guitar), which disrupts the genre limitations - and this might be the way to go in the future... As I am not quite convinced that Mesetiah have found their style with this CD here - but they are on the best way. For genre fans it´s surely a recommendation.
