3.5 greatSacredSerenity | November 16th 17

People should realize that this is a fun record they did because they were in tour with thrash metal bands.

4.0 excellentBedex | October 3rd 20

Lol I will get murdered for this but, unless Aethra really surprises me I think this is by far and away my fave Gorod record. I find their general style with epileptic alternation of riffs, soloing, and corey vocals at times just so much more suited for something short and fun like this, instead of their dm epics where they frankly tire me out quite quickly. There is still soloing that I dont agree with too much - on 1 right after epic riffs, second half of 3, and some of 5 where I feel like it actually works well -, but even when it's bad it's generally short lived. Otherwise, the riffs and the mood are hella fun, especially on 2, on 3 with the super cool premidtrack/midtrack riffage, and the fat riffs on 4 and 5. The softer sections - short intro of 4, sweet bridge on 5 - bring the few breaks needed even on a record this short, and yea this one I really might rejam. 3.8

Gorod have some fun and make basically just a pretty generic thrash EP with Gorod spice.

1.5 very poorDoctorVelvet | June 19th 17

My hunch is that this was just a fun little experiment for Gorod and little more. Because if this is a reflection of their sound to come, we're in trouble. Kiss the Freak sounds exactly if a bunch of musicians decided to tally a list of the most cliche, overused, unoriginal tropes in thrash metal, and then proceed to incorporate every one of said tropes in an attempt to make a thrash metal record of their own. Generic thrash. Generic thrash. That's all this is. They've done nothing unique with the thrash formula. They didn't integrate it. They emulated it. And the only question I'm left wanting to ask is: why?
