In Review: Thumbscrew

 

In Review: Thumbscrew
Name: Pride of Pain
Tracks: 13
Running Time: 40:43 min


Another Spanish band to be reviewed, as you know well I like a lot this scene. Thumbscrew already exists for 11 years as this is their second full length album, and they also have a split with Last Chance.

As for the music it is a powerful skin/street rock with melodic solos and singalong tunes. All the songs are in English are in English, so they can reach a vast majority of the listeners.

The second track of this CD “Bad Mother fucker” could be easily mistaken with a Dropkick Murphys song, but our boys are a way much better than those posers.

There is also a brilliant cover Motorhead’s “I ain’t no nice guy” with a brand new arrangement.

My personal favorite track is “Saturday night” which is so catchy that you gonna play it over and over again and sing it loud…Saturday is not for dancing, Saturday is just for fighting.

The CD comes in a 3-panel digipack and with a booklet with all the lyrics and could be ordered directly from Askania Productions
