Let the brutality commence! In 'A Pure World Is A Dead World', death metal devotees will get exactly what they should be inclined to expect. Deep guttural bellows, speedy double-bass pummeling intermingled with hyperblasts and more technical guitar acrobatics than you can shake a dead rat at. Intent upon creating a musical environment that is bludgeoning and moribund, Nailed take musical cues from Morbid Angel, creating complex mazes of riffery designed to impart a feeling of frantic fright. 'Dark Spawn' absolutely crushes, being some of the best pure death metal to pass by in a long while, while 'Without Hope There Is No Fear' blazes with a brutish intensity, at once raw, while remaining textured, vastly thick and layered. The listener will appreciate the production Paul Sadler put upon these nine tracks, the drum tones in particular are formidable, but it is the power behind the guitars that really push the sound of the band along. 'Vermin (Have Inherited This World)' crushes like a combo of the aforementioned Morbid Angel and early Entombed. If nothing else can be said about this group, it's that they have managed to tap into the spirit of the classic Earache recordings without seeming manufactured and that is truly a remarkable feat, indeed. Don't miss this savage sonic battering of pure, true death metal. On 'A Pure World Is A Dead World', Nailed are nothing short of superb on this spine-crushing monster of an album.
