Trawling through Bandcamp.com, searching through various up-and-coming bands, I came across this peculiar band. Going by the name LAZER/WULF, they are a unique metal outfit as they feature no vocals in their album The Void That Isn't, which is featured in this review.
The album opens with Sacrilicous. This is possibly my favorite track on the album. Featuring great breakdowns and some awesome riff-age (which pretty much sums up the entire album). Running for around six minutes, it is definitely worth sticking around to the end. Really awesome stuff.
Next up is a seg-way song, My Hiss Becomes Your Own that opens for Urine for a Treat. This track uses a heavier cord on the guitar, but is essentially more of the same (which is a great thing).
Next up is Howl Movements I-III. Opening with a banjo then blasting your face off with epic riffs and heavy double bass. Fantastic.
Lagarto is another favorite of mine. The absolutely face-melting breakdown at the back-end of the song is brilliant.
Closing off with an epic nine minute tune, Who Were the Mound Builders is an appropriate way to end a fantastic album.
Honestly, the vocals are not missed when the instruments and implementation of them are done this well. 9/10.
You can find LAZER/WULF at their bandcamp page here.
