OZ Forced Commandments Album Review


2020 saw the world plunged into isolation. It became a lonely, self analyzing place. But for those of us who are lucky to have the new OZ record, the isolation of our homes allowed them, to  become a listening room to one of the best albums released this year so far. OZ pulls no punches with its sonic throwback metal sound to a glorious age gone by. Everything you need on a metal album is here, catchy lyrics, burning solos, drums of doom!
Favorite tracks include, "Kingdom Of War", "Spiders", and "Prison Of Time".
 Truly OZ represents a present day metal act with more than a nod to the old school of historic metal. Their approach to songwriting and song architecture is indifferent to the current trends of the age. They fully stand for the metal we all grew up with.
In these catastrophic times, we need bands like OZ to keep that fire of creative metal burning. When you finally emerge from your caves into this brave new world you should, no you must, crank up Forced Commandments.
