Thrashers Ural Release Anthropic Genetic Involution on Xtreem Music

Spawned on the streets of Turin, the thrash wolves of Ural have been blowing minds and snapping necks with their technically astute, melodically inclined blend of thrash metal and crossover since 2010. Searing solos, blistering riffs, powerful vocals and a constant supply of twists, turns and surprises make Ural’s music irresistible to every adventurous thrasher who falls under their spell. After three successful albums – Party With The Wolves, Just For Fun and Psychoverse – and two deadly EPs – Wasteland and Cyber Requiem – Ural are now ready to unleash the most furious blast of metallic fire power of their whole career. It’s time for the no-holds-barred riff riot of Anthropic Genetic Involution!

From the opening moments of first track ‘Extreme Paranoia’ to the last moments of ‘…To Change Your Vision’, a final raised fist of defiance, Anthropic Genetic Involution is a veritable feast of fantastic, adrenalized thrash. From the mosh pit friendly rhythms of ‘Break The Fall’ to the juddering riffs and stunning solos of ‘Terror Eyes’, the masterful surging power of ‘Wrong Children’ to the system shock of ‘Flat Black’ – a cover of ‘60s jazz outfit The J.J. Johnson Quartet – this album is a white-knuckle thrill ride through frenetic energy, flirtations with dissonance and some of the most electrifying thrash metal around. Accomplished song writing, great musicianship and some superb vocals make Ural a unit to be reckoned with – and they’ve never sounded better than on Anthropic Genetic Involution.

Keeping a winning team together, Ural have once again collaborated with producer Davide Billia (Avulsed, Beheaded, Holy Terror etc), with whom they’d combined so successfully on the Cyber Requiem EP and Psychoverse album. The producer and band seem to be made for each other because the clarity and power that they have captured on Anthropic Genetic Involution is second to none. Another returning figure is acclaimed artist Luca SoloMacello (Elvenking, Pentagram, Wormwood etc) who has distilled the ferocity of this new set of Ural songs into a perfectly raw and rabid piece of cover art. Anthropic Genetic Involution will be fired into the world by Xtreem Music on April 23rd on CD and digital formats, so get ready to run with the wolves once again!
