Annihilator - King Of The Kill (1994) [Reissue 2002]

Posted By: gribovar

Date: May 10, 2024

"King of the Kill" is the 4th full-length studio album by Canadian thrash/heavy metal act Annihilator. The material on the album is a combination of thrash metal riffs and rhythms and traditional heavy metal elements such as anthemic hooks and hard rock/blues influenced riffs and guitar solos. The album also features a couple of more melodic oriented tracks with non-distorted guitars. The song structures are generally a bit formulaic vers/chorus based and while that works pretty well on the most memorable tracks, it doesn´t work as well on the least remarkable tracks. If the hooks aren´t strong enough a formulaic song structure can often feel a bit tedious. The overall quality of the material is decent enough though, and "King of the Kill" is an album which is relatively enjoyable while it plays. The musicianship is strong (although the vocals could have been much better), the sound production is powerful and detailed (although a bit more rawness chould have provided a slightly more interesting soundscape), and the songwriting is relatively consistent in quality and style (the instrumental "Catch the Wind" maybe sticks out a bit too much).
