Comecon - Converging Conspiracies
Review by Bruno Lemos
Converging Conspiracies by Comecon is a heavy metal album that showcases the band's unique sound and style. The album features a mix of thrash and death metal influences, with intricate guitar riffs and intense drumming that keep the listener engaged throughout.
The album's lyrics are thought-provoking and deal with themes of politics, power, and corruption. The vocals are raw and aggressive, perfectly complementing the heavy instrumentation. The standout tracks on the album include "Ulcer," "The Ethno-Surge," and "Teuton Tantrums."

The band's second 1993 album Converging Conspiracies features Asphyx's Martin Van Drunen on vocals, but for the rest is identical to their debut.
