Austrian Death Machine
Double Brutal
Album · Metal · 2009 · Metal Blade Records
The parodic premise of no-frills thrash metallers Austrian Death Machine—the Arnold Schwarzenegger–referencing side project of As I Lay Dying vocalist Tim Lambesis—coalesces brilliantly on Double Brutal. Jackhammering riffs and gravel-harsh vocals abound, especially on the Total Recall–nodding "See You at the Party Richter." Rounding out the riotous collection is a faithful cover of Metallica's warp-speed "Trapped Under Ice" and a slash-and-burn take on Judas Priest's "Hell Bent for Leather."
