FUCKYEAH! Finally! Mondongo Canibale has a band worth writing about! I have to tell you I started to feel a bit bad with the continuous slaughter of this record label’s roster of bands reviewed herein. As this company obviously has enough finances and dedication for each band it carries, not to mention the level of […]
Deep, deeper, MORTICIAN! Talking about MORTICIAN, everything is even a bit more extreme: the guitars are much deeper as well as the vocals and not every band is as fast as these sickos. Some people may find MORTICIAN ridiculous, quite a few don’t. Personally, I like the fact that they usually introduce their songs with […]
You had to wait almost five years untill the predecessor of “Decomposed By Possession” by Peru’s MORTEM was unleashed upon the worldwide hellbangers. I assumed already the worst case scenario that this old school Death Metal outfit vanished into thin air and split up. Luckily this didn’t happen. Thanks to Costa of Iron Pegasus the […]
MORTEM from Peru is apparently also still alive and deliver some pretty good old fashioned Death Metal on their already third longplayer if I’m right. “Decomposed By Possession” is a rather solid and entertaining Death Metal album, I just wished that the drumsound would be a lot better as that point is rather weak. But […]
A cover is the first impression for a listener to the world of every individual artist and band and sometimes it could be misleading like sunshine on a cold winter morning. This is the case with the fourth release of MORTAL INTENTION which (just taken the cover artwork) would lead to a true Black Metal […]
Are you stuck in early 90s Death Metal? Tired of all those soulless technical “faster-harder-louder” bands? Then MORTAL FUNGUS from Italy might be something for you. Formed in 1991 they recorded two demo tapes and then split up. In 1998 original member Frank put the band together again and this is the result: Florida style […]
Not really one of the fastest composing Death Metal bands, it took New York’s MORTAL DECAY three years to come up with a new full-length after 2002’s “Forensic” and “Sickening Erotic Fanaticism” released in 1997 (just recently reissued by Unique Leader). Now it’s 2005 and the guys strike back with a murderous slab of technical […]
This Finnish sextet is quite a young band (founded in 1999), and comes up with a very fine first release. Their label draw parallels with CHILDREN OF BODOM and SOILWORK regarding their style, but I can’t help but to find this description pretty inaccurate. Instead, I can say that MORS PRINCIPIUM EST own a heavy […]
You might have figured already that I feel pretty uncomfortable about Porn Grind. That’s for “boner-biting dick-fart fuck-faces”! I remember the ex-promoter of Morbid Records once told me (I think it was about WACO JESUS): “they’re really nice guys”. So “nothing but foul language and toilet humor”? Sometimes it’s hard to tell from lyrics written […]
There probably might be exceptions to the rule, but in most cases a MCD with ten tracks (plus intro and outro) that only comes up with a total playing time of approx. 18 minutes can only feature the most extreme type of music. And “Kick Ass Undress” by the North German sickos MORSGATT exactly fits […]
