Living Death was one of the legendary bands in Germany due to their pioneer position in the local thrash metal scene. ‘Metal Revolution’ represents the band’s early sound, the music being a combination of some fast, intense thrashing and slower, more conventional metal. The opening track ‘Killing Machine’ is particularly striking, really a classic thrasher, and a couple of other fast tracks are close to the same level. A characteristic feature in Living Death’s sound was Thorsten Bergmann’s nasty vocals which give the band a very distinctive sound. Even though one could wish for some more speed and maybe also better production, the band’s heavy approach and some blatantly catchy riffs succeed fairly well on this release. Considering its respectable intensity and some great attitude, ‘Metal Revolution’ is not a bad album of old speed/thrash metal.
