Bill Skins Fifth – For The Threat

Releasedate: 2013
By: Sabine van Gameren

In 2008 a trio started as Bill Skins Fifth, a metal formation. Anno 2010 there are four of them and they released this demo “Act One”. In 2013 the band comes with a new EP called “For The Threat” which is their third EP.

Bill Skins Fifth was one of the bands that surprised a lot with their first release. The band makes Melodic Death Metal and has with this new release stepped it up a little more. Strong vocals are in there and maybe they are hold back from taking up a too dominant spot which is a good thing as this band has a pleasant surprise for you at the guitars. The duo Henrik Hömppi and Aamos Ylönen are a great duo that work together in such a way that they compliment each other’s work constantly. Truly a highlight. Highlight of the release is the song “Perfect Circle” in which the band’s qualities come out best. Of this song the band also made a video.
Overall it is clear that Bill Skins Fifth managed to leave a great impression once again. “For The Threat” is an EP that showcases them well and tastes like more. Hopefully, the band will be able to create a full length next.
