CARVE
Stillborn Revelations
(Black Hole Productions)
36:58min

“Stillborn Revelations “, the sick debut album from the mind of one of Sweden’s purveyors of hard-hitting bombastic Death Metal – Rogga Johansson. If this name is unknown to you, mayhaps you have heard of some other of his prior work? Outfits such as PAGANIZER or RIBSPREADER, and now the equally brutal CARVE (not to forget the equally cool DEMIURG – Frank). Formed in 2000, CARVE is another extension of Johansson’s reach into all that is unholy, savage and perverse within the dark shadows of Swedish Death Metal. Taking from that abhorrent black abyss, 11 tracks of ultra heavy Death Metal, that have you opting to crank up the volume on your stereo again and again! Featuring six songs off their demo CD “Hunters Rise From Turmoil ” that was released in middle of 2001, I can’t help but be amazed at the level of musicianship herein and total quality that is CARVE. Strictly for fans of BOLT THROWER, (old) PARADISE LOST, IMMOLATION, DISMEMBER and GRAVE.
