Redshark
Title:Sudden Impact
Label:Listenable Records
Release date: 31st October 2025
This isn’t an album. It’s a rupture. "Sudden Impact" doesn’t ask for your attention it slams it against the wall and screams in your face.
Redshark have emerged sharp, furious, and unrepentant. The riffs? Serrated. Graves and Bono don’t play, they carve. Every solo is a blade dipped in gasoline, every rhythm a boot to the temple of complacency. Pau Correas doesn’t sing, he prophesies, howling like a preacher possessed, dragging the ghosts of thrash metal of the eighties into 2025!
Alan Garcia’s drums are demolition incarnate. They don’t keep time; they obliterate it. Carrest’s bass snarls beneath the wreckage, a subterranean beast clawing at the surface.
The whole mix feels like it was recorded inside a collapsing, sacred, and doomed cathedral, echoing with a sense of doom.
Lyrically, these Spaniards spit venom at the machine. Surveillance, decay, digital rot, they name the demons and then exorcise them with fire.
“Sudden Impact” isn’t just a title; it’s a warning. This is speed metal as insurgency, as ritual, as reckoning. The gates explode. No intro, no warning, just a full-throttle blitzkrieg. Let's be frank, "Sudden Impact" has many outstanding tracks, and a personal favourite of mine is
"Rip Your Bones". A track that doesn’t just play it vivisects. The rhythm section is a bone saw, the guitars are flaying knives. It’s punk in attitude, metal in execution, a moshpit autopsy with no survivors. Another on repeat has been the killer "The Chase" a speed metal death race. The drums gallop like hooves on concrete, the guitars scream like tires on fire. It’s cinematic like outrunning fate with a broken throttle and a vendetta.
There are a few slower tracks as well as the frantic neck breaking numbers which make this release a pure bred winner in my eyes!
These guys don’t revive the past, they weaponize it. "Sudden Impact" is a sonic Molotov cocktail hurled at the altar of mediocrity.
Let it Redshark impact your life and burn your eyes with pure metal insanity!
