Pity of Man

Of the few Australian thrash metal bands, Addictive appear to have been among the heavier and also better ones. Pity Of Man has a very good, thick and crunchy sound, which suits the band's heavy but rich style very well. The tracks are pretty heavy stompers, not exactly too imaginative but with some nice details throughout. Somehow the band sound a bit more fresh than your average thrash metal act although the music is certainly not too experimental or anything. Despite the convincing delivery and very consistent style this album is still strained by some dullness as the songs sound a little too samey. At least Addictive deserve some respect for putting out a fairly interesting album with Pity Of Man even though the result is not quite there to become really great. 需要注意的是,这张专辑有两个不一样的封面。
