PSYCHOPATH - Hatred Outside [Thrashing Madness; 2015]

What a fucking kick in your filthy mug! No mercy at all! These Warszawa`s based band is just filled with fury which gets released in these 12 tracks (well, 10 if we don’t count the intro and outro) of, so perfectly, balanced death and thrash metal.

Any first impressions? Sure. I can sense some Voodoo priest, (surprisingly) plenty of Terrordome (well, Dziad played some gigs in lieu of Mekong). Some riffs are very similar to the music of this outfit from Krakow, for instance this MK Ultra track. Oh well, and plenty of classic influences – Slayer, Sepultura (old, of course!), some German thrash, plenty of South American thrash too. In other words, good stuff all over!

Anyways, Psychopath fucking kicks ass all right, this album is AWESOME! It is full of aggression, yet well elaborated and compact. This album sounds very good which makes this killing machine really speedy. This stuff is both filthy, aggressive yet still very spacious. Every single instrument is very well hearable. That’s the way it should be. from razor sharp guitars, percussion`s artillery to distinct bass lines. It all works really ok. There are no substitutes, just sheer, damn aggression. Ok, let me be frank with you guys. I have not been destroyed by any other stuff like this one in a long time, really. I have been playing „Hatred Outside" for many days and I will be listening to this album again and again, that’s for sure. Lads and ladies, hats off. Well, when it comes to polish metal – it is the best album so far this year.
