"Inferno" is the name of the second studio album of the band DIABOLOS DUST, the band already has a debut album entitled "Ruins Of Mankind". The Germans have identified their musical style as a combination of Power, Thrash and Heavy Metal, this tendency is confirmed with the art work of this second album that makes you want to find out what is inside.

Germany has always provided us with great bands, including bands of Power and Thrash Metal. Since the first pieces of this album, I noticed quickly very marking elements of both genres that I just mentioned. Extremely precise riffs, mixed with a fast play full of energy. The choruses are extremely important elements and they are showcased with melodies that stick to the head and are supported by the words and the voice of Jürgen Dachl which adds even more personality. Try to listen to "Wasting Time" Or "Wheel Of Fortune".

With the song "Clouds Of Malice", the album is still have a tendency of more Thrash by comparing the direction of the previous songs. A total change has surprised me on "The Lion Gate", it seems more technical and Heavy in the manner of the 80s, which gave another positive point for this album. By linking with the other songs, I can say that the Thrash trends continue with more blast beat rhythms as in pieces like "Fire Down Below" and "The Reaper".

It must be said that "Inferno" is generally a very strong and very well produced album, a good second step for DIABOLOS DUST, but remains to look for the element that makes the music sounds more solid to move to the next step.
