Have you come across a metal band hailing from Southern Africa? Allow me to present to you the Botswana-based death metal act Overthrust and delve into their newest album, “Infected by Myth.” Are you prepared to headbang? Let’s begin!
Uncommon music scenes consistently offer surprises with their unique offerings. While traditional music scenes in the US and UK showcase great acts, the lesser-known scenes never fail to impress. Take, for example, the band Overthrust and their latest 8-track album, “Infected by Myth,” which features fresh riffs and innovative ideas. Discovering distinctive US metal bands like this is a rare gem these days. The album showcases raw guitar riffs and intense vocals, all meticulously crafted and professionally presented. The band’s attention to detail in the recording and mixing process, conducted between September and November at Milestone Studios in Cape Town, South Africa, and Farmadelica Sound in Pine Island, Florida, USA, deserves recognition in today’s fast-paced digital world. While many newcomers rushed the production process using loops and templates, compromising quality, Overthrust remained dedicated to maintaining high standards, even collaborating with Indian River Music Company for the album release.
If you’re craving a raw, old-school extreme metal sound that’s polished, don’t hesitate to include “Infected by Myth” in your music collection. Experience the intense energy now and express your gratitude later. I have a feeling that if Overthrust maintains this level of intensity, they could become metal legends in the near future. Cheers!
