TURBOCHARGED “AntiXtian”. 2011 CHAOS RECORDS.


This is a good old thrashing heavy metal fucking time. What else would you expect from Ronnie Ripper? Turbocharged remind me of a hybrid of the dirtiness of Motorhead, the thrashiness of Slayer and the better moments of Gwar. In the end, this is just a great fucking heavy metal album that is fun, catchy, rockin, dirty, thrashin and bad ass! It’s one of those albums you can put on and just enjoy all the way through. Raw heavy metal terror is on full display here! Some metal, some punk, some rock. ARGHH!!!

After the killer and evil intro “The Uprising”, the title track kicks in with total slower/mid paced bangery. It’s a plodding anthem that you will be banging your head to and throwing the horns and fists up while you sing along. “Ghetto of Eden” then kicks out the motherfucking jams. Fast paced skank beats lead into double bass terror and the pace is ripping and relentless. BAD ASS STUFF HERE!!!!!! “Lionbait” is next up. It has a mid paced/fast-ish chug to it. The whole recording has a live feel to it, like it was recorded in 1 take and as is, nice and raw, yet a good recording (like how during the guitar solos, there is only bass, not another rhythm track, this is fucking cool!) “Nekronobodies” is next and it picks up the pace a bit with skanks and sing along choruses. “Globalize the Blasphemy” blasts out of the gates of hell with a vengeance and is fast as fuck with the attack. “The Paradise They Lost” is a great mid paced skank beat driven fucker that crushes all in it’s path. “Golgotha 33 A.D.” has a killer drum/vox intro sing along that will have you screaming and growling with Ronnie. It has good mid/fast paced banging type shit going on. Good changes in tempo as well. These guys are kicking my ass! This must RULE live!!!!!!

“Species of Jesus” comes next. The killer mid paced riffing gives way to some fast paced banging and more killer skanks. Ronnie’s vocals are nice and clear throughout this fucker. Yet his throat is still whiskey soaked and full of phlegm, trust me! Haha. “Wake Up and Smell the Christian” might be one of the best song titles ever! And the song rules too. It has a total Motorhead double bass intro and pace that runs throughout the song. AWESOME! “Blasphemachine” rages next with an even faster pace with the ripping skank beats. The backing shrieks by Old Nick on this song and the others RULES as well. “Horns Forever Raised” has a slower/mid paced banging going on. This one is a killer, more rocking song. Another total anthem to rage to! “The New Sodom” ends the album with a brutal build up with drum rolls and double bass that then takes off with some killer skank beat madness. Listening to this, it sounds exactly like if prime era Sacred Reich got heavier and more satanic. If that tells you what the sound is like? Hahaha. There is some Venom and the usual Maiden/Priest influences also thrown into the mix, that all great metal bands have.

Now originally, this album was released on vinyl in Europe last year on Lemmy’s 65th birthday! How fucking cool is that?!?!?!?! This is different to my ears. That rare album that comes along that is so different yet also sounds so much like the good stuff that I have heard before. It is a totally solid and ass kicking heavy metal album to add to any headbanger’s collection! It rocks and rolls and punches you in the face and gut. Then it buys you a beer and tells you it loves ya! Chaos Records is becoming a label to watch out for! Another killer and top quality release from them! This is an essential buy, so go get it now if you call yourself a heavy metal fan! Great job to Dirty Ronnie and the boys! One of my favorite albums of 2011!
