Grindcore galore! French uncommercial veteran Grinders INHUMATE (same line-up since 1994!) are back with part four of their concept album series about life itself. This is my first in-depth encounter with their music and I must say it turned out pretty cool! Musically, the band delivers an almost classic brand of Grindcore that owes more […]
Belgian band INHUMAN HATRED offer their first demo on CD (they call it CDemo, a word that seems to be quite familiar in the Benelux I suppose), after founding the band back in 1998. A couple of line-up changes made continuous work quite hard, so this is, after a couple of gigs, their first release. […]
Does anybody remember a webzine called “Teufelstomb”? Quite a funky ‘zine actually, run by a bunch of Canadian gay-porn junkies pretending to be ultra-homophobic heterosexuals who managed to create an impressive amount of reviews with a vocabulary strictly limited to the holy trinity of ‘penis’, ‘anal’ and, of course, ‘gay’. The main focus lay on […]
The material on offer on this demo CD was already recorded about a year ago, but it’s of such a timeless nature that it doesn’t really matter at all. INHERIT is a four-piece act from Brazil, musically totally dediciated to old school thrashing Death Metal, with an obvious love for vintage SLAYER. In all of […]
Massive! What else can I say? I wrote a long review about this impressive maelstrom of Death Metal but somehow didn’t like my own writing any more. Why bore you with my bollocks? Maybe in order to promote this wonderful piece of darkness? Okay, you win. So the band finally got their record deal. I […]
Recorded back in 2002, this is not the new album by Texas-based veterans Infliction, but their first effort, for the first time professional pressed and properly released by the strenuous Revenge Productions. Primarily given around by the band itself on CD-R, “Trails Of Obliteration” actually should be brought out on Hound’s TXDM Underground Recs. but […]
The king is dead and his throne is completely deserted since the almighty DISSECTION passed away. But there is still hope that one day a band will come (sounds like a prophecy) which is in the position to close the big gap between the Death & Black Metal scene. In near future INFINITY could be […]
One should not waste much time talking about the Swedish label’s name, fact is that there are no Nazis behind it and as far as I’m concerned this rather tasteless, political un-correct moniker does not bother me much. The last thing this album by Dutch Black Metallers INFINITY would deserve would be getting shunned for […]
Really a strong record this second full-length “Sub Atris Caelis” by the Mexican INFINITUM OBSCURE which is finally out!! This band already displayed some vicious ancient Death Metal on the split with ANCIENT GODS and their debut “Internal Dark Force” from 2005 (released 2006) and luckily didn’t change the winning formula!! First thing that got […]
INFINITED HATE – I must admit that I was not aware of the existence of this act as a matter of fact. In any case – the name bears a certain reminiscence of the essence HATE ETERNAL obviously try to convey with their name. Talking about originality…!? Anyway – let’s talk about the music which […]
