“A harbinger is a sign of things to come”That is exactly what Molotov Solution is portraying in this 11-track 42-minute record. The Harbinger is Molotov Solution’s debut album for metal blade records; as far as debut records are concerned this one is an amazing effort.
From the get go each track individually delivers a masterpiece of metal. The sound is violent and portrays a political message throughout.
Recorded with Tim Labesis of As I Lay Dying in San Diego, CA at the ‘Lambeastis’ studios, the production team have given this record a huge sound, which gives the listener a devastating aural assault.
The harbinger paints a picture of a dark society and it does just that through a brutal non-stop attack of 11 blistering tracks. Outstanding tracks on this record are ‘Rule By Secrecy’, ‘Corpus Imperium’ and the title track ‘The Harbinger’.
A great debut album, a new step in heavy music and a long and prosperous future for Molotov solution with Metal Blade. A definite Rock Industry go and buy.
