DAKRYON – Promo

Even though this fourpiece from northern Germany still looks rather young, they already manage to deliver the right feeling in their music pretty good. This four song promotional CD-R is the follow up to another mini CD entitled "Tot", which I unfortunately never got to hear. So judging DAKRYON by this new material exclusively they […]

EXHUMED – Platters Of Splatter 1992-2002

Wow, this is what I call value for money, two CDs filled up to the rim with delicious goregies of tasty Gore Death / Grind inspired by CARCASS, IMPETIGO, BLOOD FREAK, AUTOPSY… What the hell, I guess everybody knows what EXHUMED is about, right? This collection of their EP material, demos, splits, cover versions, Japan […]

ETERNAL DARKNESS – Total Darkness

Attention boys and girl, we are talking about something really special here! What do you think if someone talks about Death Metal from Sweden from the early 90s? For sure you’ll think about ENTOMBED and ENTOMBED-clones, Sunlight sound and shredding guitars. I have to admit, you are right and I usually think the same, but […]

ERODED / PAGANIZER – Chapel Of Blood

I really gotta thank INGURGITATING OBLIVION’s Ulli for introducing me to the mighty ERODED! This German two-piece musically exactly continues on where early GRAVE, FUNEBRE, TRAUMATIC, MACABRE END, KAAMOS, EXCRUCIATE, DEMIGOD, CREMATORY (SWE) or CARNAGE (among others) left off in their heydays! Haven’t heard a band of this kind in Germany ever since FLESHCRAWL. But […]

EXPOSING INNARDS – Promo 2001

The Dutch Death Metal scene is definetly back on the map, after the success of bands such as SEVERE TORTURE, GOD DETHRONED, CENTURIAN and others. The Dutch scene has put its stamp on the way too crowded Death Metal scene. Now we have seemed to found a new band, EXPOSING INNARDS. Their 3 track promo […]

R.I.P. SOLDIER – The True Soldiers Never Die

I could imagine myself sitting at the beach in Recife enjoying a cold beer right now, instead of sitting in grey Scandinavia, where summer almost never drops by, not for real at least. A few beers in the sun it usually provides, though not as many as the summer in Recife I reckon. Why all […]

TORTURE SQUAD – Esquadrão De Tortura

Brazilian outfit TORTURE SQUAD has been releasing albums constantly since their 1998 debut "Shivering". Their brand of Thrash Metal came right at the time when the genre had its "second coming", at the beginning of the 21st Century. While the band has been in constant development, the production throughout their career has suffered ups and […]

FURIOUS TRAUMA – Primal Touch / Tempora Mutantur / Profit Counts

Get ready for a journey back in time, a journey into the forgotten history of European Thrash Metal. The Danes FURIOUS TRAUMA were around for roundabout a decade since their foundation in 1988, but never blew up dust. And falling into oblivion is not very pleasant, especially when there were musicians in the line-up that […]

EIDOMANTUM – Old Blood

All you fans of raw, thrashing, morbid Metal listen up, because Swedish EIDOMANTUM’s second demo might be the perfect choice for you! The sound quality is excellent, the layout is 100% old school and thus fits to the demo title. The songs are full of variation and show influences from Black / Thrash legends like […]

EIDOMANTUM – Fear The Master / Black Aura

From time to time the gates of hell are opening and from the very depths there appears… well, at least some fine piece of vinyl like this one! After two demo-tapes this Swedish band presents us now their second 7" release. The history of EIDOMANTUM goes back to the year 1998, when the band was […]
