Poison Of Ages (2007)
Ok.. where to start originally to be released 8th may 2006.. but was in fact released 21st of may 2007. The wait had me a bit annoyed, but damn it was worth it. The addition of William Cleverdon on guitars and Ben Read on vocals made this album that whole lot better.
from the last albums it's easy to tell that the riffs have had a lot more thought put into them and it's clear that Ben is a master lyricist. The lyrics take the point of view of a vegan, and is indeed showing how mankind has poisoned the world and it's ways over time. Reading the lyrics, and understanding them made this album even better than what it was. The drums (recorded and written by Steven Westerberg of Carnal Forge) were tight as fuck and straight up thrash metal, nothing over the top. The guitar riffs were just unbelievable, the tone was killer and it showed that Gary and William (only about 20 at the time) are a force to reckon with. So technical and ever changing. nearly every song has a solo that isn't overdone and that fits perfectly. This is a solid effort by 8 Foot Sativa and landmarks New Zealand on the metal map. I can't wait for the next album by the boys. Keep it up.
