Album Review: K.A.Z - Fighting for Life (2019)

Six years ago K.A.Z were founded in Lidköping, Sweden with the aim to produce intense and heavy Rock and Metal. One single and one EP later the powerful quintet has released their first full-length album "Fighting for Life". The selfreleased piece contains ten tracks of which 'Beautiful' and 'In Flames' are also available as singles. K.A.Z play some highspeed and roughedge mixture of Heavy Rock, Hard Rock and Heavy Metal with catchy melodies and atmospheric harmonies.
Central elements of the album are Ocars clean and powerful Heavy Metal leads and Louises strong and omnipresent Hard Rock chants. Around these melodic instances there is a raw and forceful landscape of galopping and intense rhythms, massive riffing as well as the support of background growls. K.A.Z merge Heavy Rock tunes with Death Metal attitude and a lot of the feeling Melodic Metal around the millenium gave you. Goosebumps are to be expected when listening to this album.
For around 45 mintes "Fighting for Life" bangs, rocks, rolls and beats on. Altogether, the album is a powerful piece of emotional and melodic heavy music. K.A.Z show a lot of potential and will hopefully keep on writing forceful music. Further, they still have some way to go experiencing what their own style is. I have no doubts that their next release will sound more unique.
