Türböwitch formed in Budapest in 2016 as a project between Zslöd and Kommandante Klit to play loud extreme metal. The Hungarian speed freaks quickly expanded into a complete five-piece lineup. They dropped a demo right away, followed by the debut album "Napalm To Posers" in 2017, the "Beyond The Last Call" extended play in 2018, and "Fullmoon Liquorthropy" late in 2022. Touring extensively, they won the Wacken Metal Battle Hungary finals in June 2024 and played the Wacken Open Air stage that August. By March 2025, they were touring Europe alongside Enforcer. Now, they return with their third album, "Under Haunted Skies", through Time To Kill Records.

Türböwitch spits out fast, filthy blackened speed-thrash. The music charges forward with massive riffs and insane tempos. You can hear the raw aggression of Midnight crashing into the melodic drive of Hellripper and the thrash attack of The Crown. "Under Haunted Skies" delivers a concentrated blast of pure speed. The guitars rip through the tracks, throwing down heavy punk-fueled violence. Searing solos add a melodic edge to the chaos, keeping the assault lethal.

The production captures the raw savagery perfectly. Guitars rip fiercely, bass rumbles deep underneath, and drums pound relentlessly. Screaming vocals tear through the mix with absolute hostility. Songs like "Cult Mastery" and "Highways Of Death" rip everything apart, throwing extreme metal right in your face. An instinctive urgency drives the entire album into a fast-paced, unholy speed assault. They keep the chaos loud and totally unrepentant.

"Under Haunted Skies" is a highly entertaining, aggressive assault. The band delivers the ferocious material you want from the underground scene. Some tracks blend together slightly during the fastest sections, keeping the score from going higher. Regardless, the riffs destroy, and the energy remains massive throughout the runtime. Türböwitch prove they belong at the top of the European speed metal food chain.

Score: 7.8
