Razed to Ashes

Gig Reviews

Academy Unsigned
Academy 3

Finally; a good melodic death metal band on the Unsigned circuit. This was a relentless performance of fierocious riffing, pounding drumming and strangely beautiful melodies. ‘Collossus’, an instrumental, could’ve falled flat on its face, but it had the required melody to make it interesting; solo duelling on ‘Legacy’ along with chromatic harmonies was superb, whilst ‘And Hell Followed’ created a crushing ending, aptly rounding of a very impressive display. Raised to Ashes should hook up with Beckonsale; the result would be complete chaos.

8/10

Set list:

1. ‘The Untruth’
2. ‘Legacy’
3. ‘Collossus’
4. ‘Enslaved’
5. ‘And Hell Followed’
