In a thrash world gone metalcore, blackened or conversely, NWOBHM-scrappy, it’s hard justice indeed that a band of brothers
has come together to champion songwriting, performance, production, arrangement and even sequencing this forthrightly,
Meshiaak bestowing on the scene an egregiously confident and “old soul” record that evokes the magic of Ride the Lightning,
Rust in Peace, South of Heaven and Burn My Eyes.
Formed in Melbourne, Australia by 4ARM’s Danny Camilleri and Teramaze’s Dean Wells, the band is rounded out by bassist
Nick Walker and major rhythmic weapon Jon Dette, of Iced Earth, Slayer and Testament fame, not to mention his gig as temporary
replacement for an injured Charlie Benante in Anthrax. It is the combination of the embarrassment of riches—and richness of
ideas—embedded in the songwriting team of Tombs and Wells, with the band’s warm and yet locked-down rhythmic beds that
conspire to make music so easy-drinking and yet thought-provoking of detail.
Meshiaak Alliance Of Thieves was released 19th August on Mascot records/Mascot Label Group.
