MORBID ANGEL promised an album of epic proportions. An album that would “break boundaries”, draw in new fans, and reinvigorate the old ones. Anticipation ran high, and the announcement of the new title, "IIlud Divinum Insanus", pushed hopes up even further. But dissenters spoke and voiced concerns years before, for since David Vincent’s return in […]
While Evil D (or David Vincent, for all you apes who don’t know his glamtastic alter-ego) was off exploring Cock Rock in his wife’s band GENITORTURERS, did you ever say to yourself, “Man, I wish he would return to MORBID ANGEL and bring some of that hip-shakin’, electro-awesomeness with him”? How about, “Dude, MORBID needs […]
Since most of you who are reading this already heard the album in one form or another, I won’t bother getting into details, but present my opinion and address the whole big damn furore surrounding this album. This fact alone hammers on the head of the screaming sheeps that MORBID ANGEL has made a fucking […]
16 years have passed. 16 years since the mighty MORBID ANGEL released "Domination"; in my humble opinion, their last good album including David Vincent on bass / vocals. The albums that came after that were not MORBID ANGEL. Period. Now, with David Vincent back in the band, Season Of Mist puts out "Illud Divinum Insanus". […]
After first listening to MORBID ANGEL with the song ‘Thy Kingdom Come’ back in 1988, I remember what an utter mindfuck it was as I could not get my head around the riffs and speed and unholy vocals. It was the most blasphemous stuff I had ever heard! Just too extreme! And if I thought […]
Well, Mr Vincent a.k.a Evil D is back and I’m sure by now all of you have recognized that this does not mean a return to the glorious times of "Altars Of Madness" and "Blessed Are The Sick". To be honest I’ve never expected anything like that. I was convinced that they would just deliver […]
I still can feel it…back in the late 80s, there was a time when the name MORBID ANGEL was invoked with reverence. It was a time when young kids were forming new bands and their only goal was to be in some way like their worshipped gods of death. And more than once the once […]
Already the 4th demo / EP from the melodic and modern sounding Finnish Death / Thrash Metallers CHROMATIC DARK, reveals the band as the meanest and most aggressive sounding combo as ever before. In between each of their previous 3 demo releases, CHROMATIC DARK have been sporting with some obvious melo-Death elements (similar to bands […]
Pennsylvanian Metalheads RELLIK found a hard judge in me when I had to review the band’s first MCD "Necessary Evil", I did not like a single thing about that particular release and I’m pretty happy now since RELLIK have massively improved! Balancing between old school Metal / Thrash and Punk / Hardcore and uniting both […]
I’m not really sure if the title of this CD is "Relic Of Disobedience" or just self-titled – I go for the 2nd one as nothing else is printed on the sleeve nor a song is called like this (from what I can figure out of these Chinese characters), though I found other information in […]
