Terror2000 is perhaps in best terms known as a ‘metal super-group’, comprising members from both Darkane and Soilwork. Both the aforementioned bands have major thrash influences and “Slaughterhouse Supremacy” is the vein of Slayer and Sodom. The record delivers a sonic offering hailing back to old school thrash metal, while still retaining very modern feel.

The album kicks in with a short introduction where every member goes completely nuts on his respectful instrument. This gives the listener an initial warning of things to come. Right when the first note of the second track kicks in, you know you are going to be treated to some top quality thrash metal. Who would have expected anything less from vocalist Bjorn 'Speed' Strid who also plays bass, Klas from Darkane, and Henry Ranta, the rhythm and speed machine from Soilwork?
Terror2000 do not ask for your respect just because of the names involved, but demand it, as you listen to the music included on this record!

I could go on and on about how awesome this disc is, but I would probably bore you. Instead let me just assure you that if you are fan of speed metal, then you should definitely think about obtaining a copy of this album. Of course, there is hardly any originality to be heard since it is mostly an assembly of musicians playing out their old school 80s influences. However, these influences are acted out upon with a fresh outlook and a slightly more contemporary approach. Therefore, fans of Darkane, Soilwork, and thrash in general have no excuse to not have their own copy of “Slaugherhouse Supremacy”!

Bottom Line: If you want good thrash metal, then buy this album now!

Deivos play a fairly fast form of death metal.  Songs here are straightforward, yet go for the throat in their approach.  The band performs things both quickly and abrasively.  This leads to an in your face style that is very welcome to behold. 

The vocals are guttural, but not to the point where it becomes annoying or anything.  The guitars are very harsh and aggressive sounding and complement the music perfectly.  Drumming is fast and precise, further complementing the songs.  On the whole, there is simply much aggression and power on display here.  The problem with the disc is that there is very little variety amongst the tracks and they all begin to sound the same.  Also, with a new release from Immolation, this one comes up lacking a little bit of presence when compared to that disc.  The disc also lacks a bit in length, making for a short, but sweet listen.  This is still a nice way to have a death metal disc end, however, as many from the genre overstay their welcome.  Deivos manage to simply get things done in a short period of time.  Though the band is very straightforward, this leads to the bruising style that manages to inflict damage on the listener.  One would perhaps wish for more creativity, but sometimes just delivering the goods is appropriate enough.  See the nicely titled Through the Eyes of the Hangman for a nice highlight with nifty drum fills and all.  This is only one of many strong moments on the disc, however. 

The nice carnage influenced approach is what leads to the stand out moments.  There is simply a nice brutality to this album and the song-writing is solid enough to back up the chops and make for a relatively enjoyable release.  Fans of death metal should find something to like with Endemic Divine.
