Sanctity Denied is the sophomore release from Polish trio Bloodthirst showcasing a smooth sounding combination of old-school thrash and modern black metal stylings. The band definitely takes a cut-the-fat approach with only 8 songs on this record; the overall sound remaining consistent from opening track "Wine for the Insane" onward. The drums and bass work have a very classic metal vibe to them, performed over the more modern black vocals and the wild guitar solos. This record should resonate well with fans of thrash metal who desire a little more darkness in the mix.To younger readers remember, Satan smiles upon ten tracks or less!
