Abominable Putridity - In The End Of Human Existence

Abominable Putridity - In The End Of Human Existence |
|
Whereas bands like Carnivore Diprosopus, Devourment, Vulvectomy
and Abominable Putridity think brutality for it's own sake is enough,
these Russian dudes have some atmosphere, restraint and a sense
of dynamics about their work. Songs are mostly midpaced and groovy,
for as far as you can speak of groovy, because the brutal heavy shit
almost overshadows the groove. Good one, and better than i was expecting.
"In The End Of Human Existence" is killing slaughter music!

It would seem difficult for Gorelord to follow up Force Fed... with another better album, but they did.
Frediablo really pulled all the coffin lids back for this one. Its a bruising mashed-up necrofest of fuckin' heavy death metal straight from the freezing crypts of the undead. Without question Gorelord's best release.
There is more variety than their other cds. Funny song titles and some really awesome undead riffing and sounding guitars. Its very good all round and consistent right the way through. Although the bonus tracks are a bit dodgy.
Reccomended to anyone.

I was sort of looking forward to hearing this album. When I did I though it was quite good on the first listen. Then once I listened again the veil was lifted and an aroma of vile rotting bums wafted past my nostrils.
The stench was one of selling out and malignant mainstream commercialism. Armada was borderline but this is well and truly over the line and off the fuckin' page.
Its just one push towards mass audiences in a similar way to Satyricon. Although KoK have kind of remained 'true' to how they used to sound but in a very loose fashion.
All the music here has had the edges softened, been spat upon and well polished with nice scented fabrics to lure in those 'fans of extreme music' who stink of Patchouli oil and wear eye makeup while thinking they are Vampires. Cradle of Filth style!
The music is well played I suppose but its too well produced and clean for a mass audience, which puts me off. Dissapointing considering their work up to but not beyond Reclaim.

This is an often overlooked slab of fillet death metal from the beef factories of Mexico.
Created by chopping down all the rainforest everywhere and burning the trees in a massive generator to power their amps. Right from the opening milliseconds you get smacked in the face by some of the tightest, biggest, and fabulously shaped death metal titties with huge hat peg nipples sticking out like the barrel of an 88mm gun!
Blasting away like a battery of Russian Gorgons being butt-fucked, tripple penetrated and gaped by a legion of SAS Balrogs.
Im not making it up either. This shit is fucking loud. Heavy as fuck asnd loud. Well written and composed and played. Its above standard death. All the components are there, fast blasting sections which leave you feeling like the recipient of a punishment beating and slow crushing grumbling riffs akin to being run over by a naked granny driving a steam roller!
The riffage is catchy regardless of being fast of slow and there is good variety across the board, from the drums to the vocals. Production is fucking meaty but looses nothing in quality. For once this is an album that dosent tail off at the end with mediocre tunes but keeps up the assault on the Gorgon's arseholes right to the bitter creamy end!
For me this is about as perfect a DM album as you can get. You need a bass heavy stereo to appreciate it fully but once experienced I reckon every metalhead should have a copy of this.

Good quality stuff from Greece.
Well thought out and composed mid-paced Black Metal. Souning similar to 90's stuff with a clean crisp sound. Good production and some very catchy nasty riffage going on. Still fairly underground but they are one of Greece's premier BM bands now.
A nice item of collectors of the underground. A decent album but like so many it seems to tail off in the last couple of songs. Other than that a thoroughly decent album

I really unique album. From the first song i noticed difference that this is not just a death metal album, this is very good death metal album, every riff is very good very unique. It is a original album, it is Bloodbath album. When i The Wacken Carnage the live DVD i noticed one thing that this band is very fucking good in live too. I don't want to mention the vocal.. checked for your self.

It took me months of continuous queuing of this band by Blaspheretic to get me to visit their myspace page and sample them first hand. I almost wish I hadn't. This is not black metal and should be renamed 'Crack-Metal'. Its so addictive.
Right from the first 5 seconds of Science Of Nihil one is bombarded by an array of most evil music. The singing is nasty as fuck, the guitars utilize a devastating plethora of riffing and styles while the drums pummel away in the back of your ear drums.
This is really really well crafted music, which is arranged expertly into 8 songs that you will not tire of easily. There is great variation of speed, technique and styles. Also the differing length of the songs makes a nice change. There are some really wierd little bits in a few songs that sound like ripped-off 1980's rock riffs but somehow they are not out of place. I don't mean that the cd is a cheese fest. Anything but. I mean they make it fit in somehow.
The final 11 minute epic is worth noting too. Begining with some great melodic guitar work that could be the soundtrack for an undead or Black Metal wedding then progressing through several phases before finishing. Awesome stuff and a kvlt must for any diehard fan. There will never ever be a prefect album but this is about as close as you can get in traditional BM in my opinion.

Vicious Art - Pick Up This Sick Child

Pick Up This Sick Child ! |

This is Death-Metal as fuck!
Ex-Members of Dark Funeral (Matti Mäkelä & Robert Lundin) and the real whizz-kid of DM, Jörgen Sandström, kicks ass. Nice stuff really... Enjoy!

Burning Skies - Greed.Filth.Abuse.Corruption
|
Burning Skies |
|
... is a fine example of one of those bands that smoothly blends different categories of extreme music (Death, Gore). The songs on this album are relatively short, brief and powerful bombs averaging to a length of three or so minutes. The majority of compositions are hypersonic, invoking mobility within you... Check them out!

Abysmal Dawn - Programmed To Consume
|
ABYSMAL DOWN |

... play death metal with pummeling blast beats and shredding guitars. They also infuse elements of thrash and black metal that increase the extremity and diversity of the music. The songs range from lighting fast traditional death metal to mid tempo tracks with a lot of groove and melody. There's even some acoustic guitars and a song that's slower and doomy.
