These days we have to search hard in order to find a Death Metal band able to stir something inside our guts. It seems that everything has been done in that domain. Fortunately, from time to time a band like PSYCROPTIC raises its ugly head and refreshes a passion jaded too often. This Tasmanian outfit […]
True Tasmanian devils are the guys of PSYCROPTIC who really head from Tasmania, Australia, the birth place of that funny cartoon beast you might know from TV. But here is not the right place to talk about cartoons but music and in PSYCROPTIC’s case one can expect very twisted sounds blending contemporary brutal Death Metal […]
PSYCHOTRON? MEGADETH fans, eh? Cool name anyway. These German Thrashers promisingly start with a cool intro. Unfortunately floating into the first song is fucked up by a pause that doesn’t belong there. The producer’s fault? Cool Thrash song, aggressive vocals. But already the first song reveals their massive weakness: the clean vocals. They sound utterly […]
Proving once again that all you need in this life is perseverance and a heart of pure hate to survive in these times of Metal. From the Finnish wasteland of Tampere – a duo now emerge – an aeon since the buried ashes of underground heroes DEPRAVITY were lain to rest, now appears PSYCHOPATHIC TERROR […]
It’s not everyday such twisted humor, so idealic in every sense as this, should warm the depths of my black heart. The facts alone about this band’s debut album being titled “Fisting You All “, and that PSYCHOBOLIA is a Gore encrusted brutal Death Metal act fronted by a female, had me laughing out loud! […]
Definitely one of my favourite albums in 2001! I can whole-heartedly say this because there was enough time to listen to this debut album over and over again. How come? “The Stupid One” (as he called himself – no revolution down in the pit – yet!) Frank mistakenly erased this review and so had I. […]
One of the recent up-and-comers of the Dutch brutal Death Metal scene is this quartet of sexual perverts who could gain a good amount of respect from fans and press with their last release “Deeds Of Derangement” and their undeniably present power onstage. Now their third full-length leaves the cavernous insides of a raped and […]
Whew! Frognoize Death Metal from Holland! Again! Isn’t this getting a little too much? Maybe, but not in this case. The first thing that divides PROSTITUTE DISFIGUREMENT from their partners in crime is that their singer sounds considerably deeper than any band from that genre I have listened to, including big acts like DISGORGE or […]
Welly welly well. What do we have here? Me thinks Hell’s Headbangers is batting 3 and 0 with this release. Another fine addition to the HH’s stable as PROSANCTUS INFERI conjure up a tasty CD with songs that at times remind me of a much better PROFANATICA (respect to them but they are not my […]
If ARCH ENEMY, DIMMU BORGIR and LACUNA COIL had a musical love child, THE PROJECT HATE MCMXCIX would be the result. ‘The Lustrate Process’ is the 8th album from the Swedish Metallers. However, before I begin the review properly, I must warn people that this is a LONG album. Each of the 7 songs clock […]
