ULTIMATUM
INTO THE PIT

As a survivor of the 80's to 90's Christian thrash era (although hopefully not the last) and an old school "metal as missions" proponent, Ultimatum's new full length Into the Pit has been highly anticipated. Comparisons to Exodus and older Metal Church are come by honestly, but the new album is worlds beyond Ultimatum's previous efforts, as the lucky few who purchased last year's "teaser" EP can attest. Singer Scott Waters' razor-tongued shrieks stick out in a world of hardcore screaming and death metal growls, but might best be described as a cross between Roger Martinez (thus his stint with Once Dead) and Accept's Udo. The album is full of some heavy riffing, with a sprinkling of fiery axework and memorable tunes, in spite of the formula tasting stale at a couple turns. Still, a giant step forward for these thrashers; well worth the price of admission. [RETROACTIVE]

The same review should show up in Heaven's Metal with Ultimatum on the cover.
