Review

This band shouldn't be unknown at all because of their awesome demos that deliver super Heavy/Power Metal with several Slayer-like influences. But this 7" was unknown! I've asked several collectors and NONE even heard about it, especially since it was manufactured by the RCA! Looks like a kinda Promo EP, perhaps made for jukeboxes or radio stations containing 2 trax from the "A Donda Vas" Cass-album that sadly are stylistically sounding far away from their earlier thrashy Power Metal. Chronos settled down to a much more commercial Heavy Metal style with almost rockin' feeling("Distorsion"). "Depresion" is ok imo, good Metal, but the flipside really sounds disappointing when you know what kinda Metal they were able to create 2 years earlier! It's definitely not worth the huge mountain of gold you'll have to trade against this super rare piece. Only for collectors!
