[Album] Hidden (JP) - EMBALM 〜Enbalm After 20 Years〜 (January 23, 2019)

[Dudemanguy]

Some of you might enjoy this one. Hidden was an old Nagoya-based Japanese band that only released a few demos (and got on a spilt) before disappearing in the 90s. Well it took about another 20 years, but they finally managed to compile a bunch of their old songs together and release a full-length. Their style seems to be technical thrash with some power metal elements (especially the vocals). Well worth a look if you enjoy this kind of hard-hitting technical thrash (it's up on CDJapan, Amazon Japan, and other Japanese retailers).
