It has taken me so long to review this album that the follow up came out recently (2016's Agony). That is pretty shameful, as I have been pretty stoked about this bunch of Brazilian thrashers since catching them at 2015's Obscene Extreme. Nervosa are an all-female act, and it is incredibly refreshing to *not* see this used to their "advantage" as some sort of gimmick or selling point.
Victim Of Yourself has the perfect production job for a thrash metal record; clear and concise, with the drums protruding clearly through the mix, and the bass clanking away and not hidden by the guitars. Vocalist / bassist Fernanda Lira boasts a frankenstein rasping howl, drawing blood from Death's Chuck Schuldiner and ex-Arch Enemy front-woman Angela Gossow.
Check out this video of the band playing OEF. I've also linked the album below it as per usual :)
