Pariah’s “Unity” re-issued! Satan released this album under the name Pariah in 1997! Thrash Metal attack! First time on vinyl. “Unity” was the comeback album of Pariah/Satan, released after 9 years after they split-up, in 1997. Released on the band’s own label Aartee Music, and only 1.000 copies were made on CD. Pariah (Satan) is a band that did change much over the years, evolving at lightning speed, so was a bit of a surprise that “Unity” did not sound drastically different to their previous albums. They sound perhaps a tiny notch softer and less aggressive than before and this is largely because Alan Hunter (Tysondog) possessing a softer and more traditional voice, reminiscent of Joe Elliott from Def Leppard - has replaced Michael Jackson as vocalist. “Unity” doesn’t disappoint as Ramsey and Tippins exchange riffs and solos as briskly as before and the consistent and strong songwriting of “Blaze of Obscurity” is present here also. Broadly speaking, this still works in the realm of what you’d call Power/Thrash, with the chugging speed of Thrash Metal mixed into guitar work and songwriting that’s melodic in a way that’s closer to the NWOBHM sound than anything else, but this differs a good bit in both songwriting and vocals. The compositions are more varied than before. This more diverse approach to songwriting leads to some first-rate guitar work from Steve and Russ, who are just as comfortable blazing away with thrash riffs as they are the kind of killer twin guitar work they’re known for, and every song has bushels of hooky, smoking riffs that rival the best of them. This is Pariah we are talking about and the material is strong enough to make “Unity” an entirely worthy comeback and a worthwhile listen. If you liked “Blaze of Obscurity”, you should get “Unity” as well!
