Brain Metal! Cult thrash re-issue of the 1989 concept album. This is DBC's 2nd full length moving to a more progressive and worked way to Thrash (CORONER and VOIVOD being the first comparisons to surface) than their raging previous debut. Musically, "Universe" is the band?s adolescent progressivism growing into manhood. Instincts sharpen, intuition thickens, brains evolve, and with added confidence skill wields more composite, well-oiled weaponry, and with these ten tracks D.B.C.?s unchanged membership liberate themselves from the low light confines an ill-chosen name had built. In tackling these bold new territories, the members of DBC implemented a surprisingly innovative change of direction. Guitarists Gerry Ouellette and Eddie Shahini have refined their once Slayer-esque attack into a classically oriented approach, while the Dakin/ St. Louis rhythm section oversees these careful orchestrations with painstaking precision. The power of their 1987 debut remains, and is intensified at points by the radical new bent Dakin defines as"brainmetal".
