TRAITOR - Teutonic Slaughter (Live) - Reviewed By Metal Digest ! Check it out here https://metal-digest.com/2023/09/28/traitor-teutonic-slaughter/

Germany has always done one thing really well and that is thrash metal. The more brutal, the better. For every Metallica and Slayer, there was a Kreator and Destruction and this sound has run through Germany like Rhine. One band who have been delivering top drawer thrash metal are Traitor and on the back of a superb studio album last year, Traitor have delivered their latest live album ‘Teutonic Slaughter’.

The sound you have in your heard now for German thrash metal? That is exactly the sound that Traitor deliver here with ‘Teutonic Slaughter’. It’s not polished, it’s not pretty, but it is fast, ugly, and reeking of sweat, booze and puke. There is everything here that any fan of thrash metal could ever want, and the album gives a great retrospective of Traitor’s career. There’s no piss arsing about with splitting the crowd in two and wondering which side is louder, there’s no bass or drum solo, call and response vocals or extended guitar wankery, just balls to the wall thrash metal and anyone who wants to close their eyes and pretend they’re in a small venue with Traitor then ‘Teutonic Slaughter’ is the way to do it.

If you like your thrash to be technical or overly polished, brimming with pyrotechnics and a big cuddle welcoming you to the family… then this isn’t for you. This is proper old school thrash the way it is meant to be and if you don’t like it? Well, you know, F.U.A.D. Metal Digest

The whole record was recorded by Iridum Stream at the Schlichtenfest 2022, both the sound and the image. Yes, you read that right! Everything was mixed and mastered by the ingenious Kai Stahlenberg in the Kohlekeller studio! The great cover is by Irvan Yudap this time.

And best of all: in every CD booklet you will find a QR code with which you can watch the video recordings. So if that's not the Burner, we don't know what is.
