So, finally I get to review a Thrash Metal (my fave sub-genre) band for Voices From The Darkside. And with a bunch of “retro” bands that suddenly have overcrowded the international scene, REPENT stand for good old Thrash Metal the way it was meant to be played! Fast and harsh! Formed back in 1992, when […]
Another promising band from the Netherlands reached me a short time ago. This demo CD was already released in February 2007 and strangely enough is not that well-known in the scene as far as I know. Strangely enough because the 4 songs on it are pretty good and above the average. It’s Death Metal here, […]
Without having the opportunity of hearing this band before today, and without stepping on Voices’ contributer Stefan Franke’s toes for the review he made of RELLIK’s last disc entitled” Deceive The Deceiving”, either RELLIK has totally revamped their style in the less than three years since that MCD was put to the street or I […]
Now both the band and the label that released this album are no more. United Guttural are out of business when the owner, Rich Lipscomb (ex-Fleshgrind) sold his label and the band, Rellik ceased to exist after the departure of their founder drummer. “Heritage Of Abomination” is actually an old release as this album was […]
This second album by Gothenburg’s RELEVANT FEW will certainly excite every noise terrorist out there and the neighbours will hate it. Besides some short acoustic song intros and the four-minute Slowcore song ‘Doomsday Celebration’, they perform fast and chaotic Grindcore with a slight Noisecore influence, which shows up in a few slower and disharmonic parts. […]
When it comes to honest, non trendy sounding Black Metal, the UK wasn’t necessarily the number one country to check out thus far. But with the release of REIGN OF EREBUS’ first full-length “Humanracist” this could possibly change around for the better now. The band has undergone quite a few drastic line-up changes ever since […]
Formed from the ashes of the Swedish cult act Crematory, Regurgitate have been, without any doubt, one of the biggest influences on the Goregrind / Grindcore scene of all times. Their first effort, “Effortless Regurgitation…” was one of the purest and dirtiest Grind albums ever released, and when they came back with “Carnivorous Erection” they […]
Even though Sweden’s REGURGITATE are deeply rooted in the Grindcore genre (which is not necessarily my favorite type of music), I’ve always been curious what these guys musically might be up to… The reason is plain and simple – throughout the years their line-up already featured three former members of the legendary Swedish Death Metal […]
Urrgh, this type of music drives me completely insane! Even though RED HARVEST seem to appeal to readers and writers of England’s Terrorizer Magazine pretty much (the band was voted in their category “best newcomer” on #7 and also ended up on #33 in the category “album of the year 2000”), I personally can’t stand […]
I carefully listened to this album twice before reviewing just in case I missed something in the first place, but I can say now that I am glad this painful experience is over for good! This first offering from these four Swedish dudes is weak beyond belief, and I wonder how come Listenable felt the […]
