Oracle - Demo 1990

Review by jose Mª Gorgas

Oracle's Demo 1990 is a raw and powerful glimpse into the band's early days. The album features five tracks that showcase their unique blend of thrash and death metal, with a touch of technicality that sets them apart from their peers.

The production quality is admittedly rough, but that only adds to the album's charm. The guitars are crunchy, the drums are thunderous, and the vocals are guttural and intense. Each song is a blistering assault on the senses, with plenty of tempo changes and intricate guitar work to keep things interesting.

Standout tracks include "Serpent's Tongue" and "Pestilence," both of which feature some of the album's most memorable riffs and vocal hooks. "Eternal Sleep" is another highlight, with its haunting acoustic intro and crushing mid-tempo groove.
