Metallica�s Kill �em All has got a stripped down, savage sound, as if they were making it up as they went along, countering any lack of finesse with amped up energy. Early Man�s three song EP is very much the same thing, in style, tone, and temperament. There are the direct nods to NWOBHM, there�s the raw feel, and there�s an overall vibe that makes you want to wear a denim vest over your leather jacket and bang your head against the stage like you did before.

Quality old-school thrashy metal if you ask me, and they pull it off live even with just two guys.

I think this thing smokes. Original? No. Headbanging fun? Fuckin A right-on, man!
