Execution

Singing entirely in their native language, this Parisian quintet delivered one of the most vital and energetic documents of the French heavy metal underground. 'Execution' relies on blistering twin-guitar harmonies and Phil Grelaud's high-pitched vocal theatrics to explore dark, historical lyrical themes primarily concerning the French Revolution. The furiously paced album helped definitively establish a distinctly European flavor within the burgeoning speed metal scene.
