The world is not fair for sure! Bands like LAAZ ROCKIT get lost and don't get the credit they deserve and some young bastards like TRIVIUM become known in the blink of an eye! Anyway, the US thrashers are back for good to show that this time they will not compromise with mediocrity. They have come to claim what is theirs and after having listened to their new album I can say that they don't have to claim it, you'll just give it to them while bowing before them.

LAAZ ROCKIT, the band that took its name from a Clint Eastwood movie (The Enforcer), has offered some Thrash Metal classic in the past. Albums like Know Your Enemy and Annihilation Principle injected some pure and aggressive Thrash Metal to the 80's scene. Unfortunately, the band disbanded, but it was in 2005 when LAAZ ROCKIT would play together again with their original line up. And of course they didn't keep their promise and they are releasing a new album.

Thrash fucking Metal motherfuckers! I could finish this interview with four words. Such bands don't need many comments. LAAZ ROCKIT return with an album full of shredding guitars, groovy and relentless drumming and slightly different vocals. The US metallers have adapted their sound to the nowadays scene's requirements and have a slightly more modern attitude, while maintaining their original sound.

The killer riffing and guitar leads by the evil twins Jellum and Kettner are melting your brain, while a huge rock consisted of Lange and Harris is crushing your bones. While your corpse lies smashed, the incredible and aggressive voice of Coons is singing your requiem. Sounds too poetic for a band like LAAZ ROCKIT, huh? If I could put it simpler it would be like... a Thrash fucking Metal band kicking your ass and making you want to mosh!

Satisfied with what you've heard until now? If yes, just support the Thrash Metal renaissance and get this album now! If not, then go back to your pussy loving music and try to realize what pure Thrash Metal is. When you do, read this review again and Left For Dead will somehow sound like a headbanging hymn to your ears.
