"Hailing from the frigid, bitter metropolis that is Helsinki, Finland, Killing Frost are finally back in 2023 after releasing a highly touted demo tape a few years back. Featuring members of modern Crossover Thrash legends Foreseen, Killing Frost takes a similarly metallic approach to their Hardcore, but in a completely different way. While the material on the Self-Titled 7" is still rooted in Killing Frost's signature concoction of bands like Celtic Frost, Sheer Terror, Discharge, and Carnivore, there's a little more of an experimental feel to the 3 songs on this EP. I mean, when was the last time you heard a Hardcore record with keyboards on it? Bands in Killing Frost's lane are generally afraid to take risks and break the mold, but these Finnish boys clearly don't give a fuck about being generic or playing it safe. The centerpiece and closer "Wilkman's War II" clocks in at almost 5 minutes, and there isn't a single second where your skull isn't being pounded in by absolutely barbaric riffing and blood curdled screams. There's some very apparent Rock N Roll swagger mixed into the brutality of Killing Frost's music, making each song more memorable than the last. It would also be a crime to not mention frontman Niko Wilkman's absolutely ferocious vocal performance. He's swinging for the fences and hitting it out of the park just as Paul Bearer, John Brannon, and Jack "Choke" Kelly did before him. Absolutely top notch stuff across the board - can't recommend it highly enough!" - Connor Donegan

lyrics
The devil haunts me
Around every corner
Everywhere I go,
he’s always there
Staring at me,
in the bottom of my glass
He’s smiling at me
on the lips of an unknown lass
The devil haunts me
Everyday and everynight
Everywhere I go,
He’s always by my side
The shadows always covering,
The warm side of the sun
Waiting for the night to spoil,
The dreams of everyone
If I show happiness and even smile today
My luck will turn because the game is different everyday
Just when I think
I don't have to worry anymore
If he’s not behind me
He’s knocking on the door

This is one of those albums where I have a different favourite track every week, and it's been like that since the release that is now a year ago. What a massive album, starting out with fist pumping chants and gradually getting more electro but always with that punk grit attitude. Top 3 of 2023. Gijs van Soest
