PRESTIGE
“You Weep”
Single Review by Iron Mathew

8/10

Prestige are a thrash metal band from Finland formed in 1987. For the four years between ’88 and ’92 the band “lived fast, toured extensively, and released three albums” – ‘Attack Against Gnomes’ (1989), ‘Selling The Salvation’ (1990), and ‘Parasites In Paradise’ (1992). After their performance at the 1992 Ruisrock Festival, the band split up.

The compilation ‘Decades Of Decay’ emerged in 2007, after which the band reformed, toured Europe, and played at several festivals in their home country. In 2020, the band recorded two new songs – ‘Exit’ and ‘You Weep’.

‘Exit’ was released as a digital single in 2020, and in 2021, it is time for ‘You Weep’ to be released. ‘Exit’ was a scorching blast of old school thrash metal…

…with ‘You Weep’ very much in the same vein, albeit a little more aggressive and attitude laden. The chant style chorus of “you weep” is gonna be yelled and screamed by fans everywhere. Fingers crossed these two singles are a prelude to a new album.

Overall, a thundering barrage of old school thrash, highly infectious and massively head bang-able.
