Ambush - Evil in All Dimensions (Napalm Records)


 

Ambush continues to fly the heavy metal flag high with pride! “Evil in All Dimensions” has all the traditional trademarks of the genre. Great catchy songs, impressive delivery, and sharp production. In other words, this album puts a smile on your face each time it is played.

For a number of years now, Sweden has been producing very impressive bands ranging from death metal to traditional. Acts like Ambush, Enforcer, or Teaser Sweet certainly add a lot of freshness to the genre. All incredible and definitely worthy of your attention.

“Evil in All Dimensions” is a great blend of tracks; there are very fast-paced rockers as well as ballad-like slower tunes. It all adds to the overall balance of the record and makes a very pleasant listen. What’s really impressive here are the songs’ structures and the band’s ability to add color to every single track. While you're at it, check out the guitar harmonies; these boys are having fun!

While Ambush is still trying to get acknowledged internationally, this is already their fourth album. The band is superb, and every single one of those records rocks in their own way. Ambush continues to polish their craft as they anticipate that special break that will put them over the top.

“Evil in All Dimensions” echoes the finest traditional years of heavy metal sailing back from the 1980s. In fact, Ambush does it so well that you have to check the release year to clear any unwanted confusion. The album has the feel, the attitude, and the unconventional approach to rock hard, and it does!
