Description

Brazilian 1999 release on blue vinyl with gatefold, OBI-strip and 4 page insert. Limited 330 copies

After leaving V8, guitarist Osvaldo Civile formed Horcas in August of 1988. During the years the band would almost become as legendary in their home country Argentina as V8. Horcas has played support to many of the major acts such as Metallica, Motorhead, Iron Maiden, Kreator, Exodus. In 1993 the band were put on hold as the members needed some time off. After 5 years of recording silence the band returned with Vence in 1997 and followed it up with Eternos in 1999. The album has lots of speed metal melodies and traditional metal bits, still the thrash metal riffs are damn prevalent and the pummeling double-bass drum work and those demented wails help to create a mood of heaviness similar to that in the early Anthrax albums or in Jag Panzer’s Ample Of Destruction. Their new high-pitched singer Water Meza, found for the recording of Vence, are still in the band and just listen to a track like Rompo El Dolor, speed like Freewheel Burning, damn intense gallops, cool melodic leads and then Walter’s screams. The album ends with Cosas Enfermas, a remake of the old classic from the band’s first album, very faithful to the original version. Want thrash? Want Speed Metal? Want riffs? Then get this album now. This is the last album Horcas recorded with their founder, band leader and guitar hero, Osvaldo Civile, before he was found dead with a gun shot in his chest.
