beer_metal_dbeat-666 Addicting blackened speed metal punk, packed full with memorable riffs. Very consistent, I don't find myself skipping any songs of this album! This has to be one of the hottest, most potent bands in this genre today. Favorite track: Black Battalions.

funkhundd Awesome blend of first wave BM (Venom, Bathory), old school Thrash (Exodus, Destruction), raw, crusty Punk and traditional Speed Metal. Every Song ist memorable, with killer riff upon riff, great hooks and more attitude than a brick shithouse. And as if that wasn't enough, the sound of the whole thing is just fuckin perfect.

METAL BLOODY METAL You will play this album most days if you like classic metal/black thrash. In my Top 5 Albums of 2021 but it's a classic that will enter the list of all-time greats. It's that good. www.facebook.com/groups/metalbloodymetal Favorite track: Black Light Of The Evening Star.

NATHAN ASHTON This album absolutely rages and grooves, very impressed by the catchiness and deadliness on display here! I saw Lucifuge in a pub in Leipzig in Jan 2020 and I asked Equinox what chords he uses, he just says “I make up my own”. True DIY black thrash metal punk. Hell yeah

about

For the past five years, LUCIFUGE have been perfecting an addicting style of blackened speed metalpunk, all guided by the iron fist of mainman Equinox. Starting in 2018, the one-man wrecking crew released a demo, an EP, and the Ride the Beast debut album. The next year was no less busy, with two EPs and the second album Der AntiChrist. And just last year, the full-length The One Great Curse was released and then the digital single “Infernal Power.”

The latter single proved to be a teaser for LUCIFUGE’s fourth album, also titled Infernal Power. Going from strength to strength and now expanded to a full quartet, here does Equinox take his signature sound – greasy ‘n’ galloping riffs, locomotive rhythmic (dis)charge, and twisted ‘n’ pissed vocals – and spit-shine them with the dirtiest motor oil known to man. It’s all righteously party-hardy stuff, headbanging and boozy to the bitter end, but Infernal Power palatably exudes a startling professionalism usually elusive to those flying the metalpunk banner, no doubt a result of the lineup expansion. Likewise, the EVIL is ramped up here, cobwebs of haunting melodicism draped delicately across LUCIFUGE’s no-less-crazed attack. And perhaps most interestingly, Equinox covers GISM’s “As Good As It Is,” from that legendary Japanese band’s cult second album, M.A.N., an idiosyncratic blend of epic metal and noise. Which is all to underline the relatively unique ground LUCIFUGE are travelling with Infernal Power; names such as Inepsy, Blood Spit Nights, and Kriegshog are as easily evoked as those of Exciter, Razor, and English Dogs – and of course, the almighty Warfare and especially equally early Running Wild and Onslaught UK.
