It is the need for sweat as an eternal condemnation. It is the longing to collapse exhausted and rise up again. And that is how I see this band live on stage while listening to their CD. There seem to be a lot of bands out there that play this metalcore style with so much rage and energy and The Modern Slavery is no exception. Mixing the double bass pounding drums with fast riffs and a singer that does not only scream like he is in a hardcore band but also knows how to add a few growls. The band does not leave any room for a melodic interlude, and personally that is what I find missing. The wall of sounds starts and sounds like a machine that does not stop, it does end when the last track comes to an end.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDrop by Drop\u201d is maybe a track where they left a tiny space to breath. It has a little more melody but has a solid amount of rage to it. \u201cDecent to Oblivion\u201d shows that they know how to play fast with loads of energy. \u201cPurple\u201d starts a little slower but has sharp growls. The CD ends with a cover from Entombed&#8217;s \u201cWolverine Blues\u201d, which is not bad.<\/p>\n<table>\n<tr>\n<td><\/td>\n<td><strong>Tracklist:<\/strong><br \/>\n01 Progenies of Ancient Slaves<br \/>\n02 Red Lines of Obsessions<br \/>\n03 Damned to Blindness<br \/>\n04 Drop by Drop<br \/>\n05 A Desert To Die For<br \/>\n06 Vile Mothers Earth<br \/>\n07 The Sublime Decadence of an Era<br \/>\n08 Shell of Perversion<br \/>\n09 Descent to Oblivion<br \/>\n10 Purple<br \/>\n11 The Modern Age Slavery<br \/>\n12 Wolverine Blues<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n<p><strong>Links:<\/strong><br \/>\n<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.myspace.com\/themodernageslavery\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">The Modern Age Slavery MySpace<\/a><br \/>\n<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.themodernageslavery.com\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">The Modern Age Slavery Official<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Releasedate: 01-12-2008; Label: Napalm Records By: Elvira Visser The Modern Age Slavery was formed a little more than a year ago, and since then the band has produced a demo, signed with Napalm Records and recorded their debut CD \u201cDamned to Blindness\u201d.
