Are TOXOCARA the ones becoming the next big Dutch rebel in 2008? This question is easily answered: no, they are not. Even if a letter of refusal is given to this one, I say definitely “yeah!” to the Death Metal played on The Great Rebellious. The four guys around bass lady Anne von Dorn know how to master their instruments, even much better as guys from other bands of this genre. The formula of success of their second release can be found in the American Death Metal character: The Great Rebellious is, to a large extent, a raging Pit bull Terrier which sank his teeth somewhere between Cannibal Corpse, Monstrosity and Immolation without being monotonous. As a guarantor TOXOCARA focuses on cleverly devised song structures addicted to technicality, mixed up with groovy parts or samples. Latter ones are just sporadically embedded, supporting the overall pictures and statement of the songs, instead of being disturbing. U-48 – Dive Of Death is accomplished by a echo-sounder, Among Amon counts on a movie sample, Fusillade The Coalescent is lent more atmosphere by short and back grounded choral vocals. When talking about the vocals, pleasantly and naturally deep they get shot out of the speakers. The last roar given to The Great Rebellious is the phat production. Even if TOXOCARA don’t redefine the Death Metal, this brutal release filled up with killer riffs makes its way in every Death Metal collection.
