Sitting here on a typical damp grey March day when everything seems to have gone wrong this week. I needed something extreme to listen too, so I decided to review Captor's new CD.

Dogface is the title of the new Captor CD and when I say this is extreme metal, I mean it is EXTREME. Right up there with the likes of Pantera & Machine Head. With tracks such as 'Bleed With Me', 'All my Pain' and 'Hate Is Hate', what else would you expect. Dogface hits you full in the face like a ten ton hammer.

Of Course, this style of Metal is very much in at the moment. So what chance do Captor stand in making it in the big league, when the competition is very high. Well I would like to think that with the release of Dogface, they stand a very good chance.

There has to be some kind of comparison with the more establihed bands and most notably the vocals were very reminiscent of Pantera's Phil Anselomo, but the overall quality of Dogface makes up for that.

Captor have produced in Dogface one of the best examples if this style of metal, I have heard in a long time. In short Captor have thrown down a challenge to the major labels bands, and said come on follow that. The question is can they ?. Well we will just have to wait and see as '98 rolls on. The future for Captor looks very bright indeed.
