Too often are brutal Death Metal releases ruined by a bad production transforming them into a wall of painful noise without any sense. Hence, this kind of music is (unfortunately) rarely associated with intelligence and finesse. I am glad to report that ABORTED crush this cliché with their magnificent third release and I am not […]
Although this is already the second album of ABORTED from Belgium it is my first experience with them. And what can I say, the guys are highly talented musicians and come up with very brutal Death Metal the American way. Their songs are in the vein of (older) SUFFOCATION and co., quite technical and varied; […]
Destroyer Records is an underground label based in the South of Brazil, dedicated to brutal stuff. Their website is written in Portuguese for the moment, but they promised to build another one in English soon. Anyway, I saw the first effort from ABOMINATTION in some distros here in Europe, so I suppose it would be […]
Death Metal is served by these three Australian warriors. Fast played, almost missing any mid-tempo parts, they are blasting their way down the playtime. Some people may cry about this monotony, but if one favours bands like IMMOLATION or EXHUMED, the song-structure should be appreciated. Lyrically ABOMINATOR tend more to the dark / occult side, […]
I am a fan of ABOMINATOR since their debut “Damnations Prophecy” out on the Necropolis Records label in 1999. Throughout the years this Australian bunch of true maniacs have never disappointed me, and I have never grew tired of their relentless and brutal Black / Death assaults. “Nuctemeron Descent” presents a fleshed up line-up for […]
Well, these Aussies are in a hurry indeed! Uncompromising Black / Death feat. Damon Bloodstorm (ex- BESTIAL WARLUST) for the last time. For me these guys are almost too fast but I guess there’s quite a bunch of sickos out there who love it that way and as “Subversives…” is well executed and as other […]
Should you find yourself wondering if this band is indeed one of the many newly reformed old school acts of yesteryear, you would be half correct. ABOMINANT began in the mid 90s, long after the old school had begun to die away. The musicians who founded the band, though, were active in the scene long […]
Hm, not that easy to describe what ABOMINANT come up with on their seventh album. Obviously a hardworking band and very proficient on their instruments, the five guys from the US deliver a powerful, mixture of fast and pounding Death Metal with lots of melodies which sound slightly Scandinavian-influenced. In the title track the allusions […]
Powerful driving Death Metal with lots of influences and elements coined by traditional Heavy Metal offer long-time active ABOMINANT from the US. Though the Heavy Metal elements do not weaken the bands forceful brutality the ACCEPT-like vocal parts and high-pitch “where-are-my-balls” – Halford screams are certainly not everybody’s taste. Despise that production and song-writing mirror […]
What a surprise! Dark and evil; that’s the way Death Metal should be, and that is exactly how ABLACH play it. This album came to me out of nowhere, and thank goodness it did, for it is every bit the praise-worthy debut the VASAELETH demo was. I can draw comparisons between ABLACH and countless other […]
