REVIEWS:

I first heard of this band when a friend sent me this album in mp3 format a few months ago. Whoa. Instant flooring. I ordered "the real thing" as soon as I saw it available from my favourite online distro. URN hail from Finland and play some brutal, unrelenting Blackened Thrash. The closest comparison I can come up with is Canada's Megiddo. Replace Megiddo's omnipresent dark, evil-sounding atmosphere and replace it with insane speed, and you get URN. Not that URN doesn't have that kind of atmosphere, but the speed overshadows it almost completely. Thrown in a bit of Dekapitator-style insanity for seasoning.
