One song. Over 38 minutes. A daring thing to do and more if your style is quite limited like extreme Metal. Done right, and it can be something that generations and the nocturnal wind will be speaking of for centuries to come… done wrong it will be burnt to ashes to never raise again. IMPIETY, […]
I gotta confess that I’ve checked out Singapore’s IMPIETY pretty late, considering the number of releases the band had already put out at the time (two demos, two EPs, three full-lengths and two splits), but “Paramount Evil”, their 2004 full-length, immediately turned me into a diehard fan nevertheless. The violently performed, harsh mixture of ANGEL […]
Aaaaaaaaargh, finally the best band to ever come out of Singapore comes back, the gods of the most blasphemic, apocalyptic and totally Thrash influenced Black / Death Metal, which left me completely astonished with “Asateerul Awaleen” and its raw and brutal sound, and which rounded it with “Skullfucking Armagedon”, a pure piece of blasphemy. And […]
Well, the title of Singapur’s (in-)famous Black / Deathers IMPIETY’s newest effort gives a damn good impression of what one can expect of it musically. The eight new songs are nothing but pure chaotic and extremely brutal Black / Death that should appeal to fans of BLACK WITCHERY, ANGEL CORPSE and THORNSPAWN alike. No compromises, […]
The name IMPERIOUS might not necessarily ring a bell (yet) to most of you reading this, but the real die hard underground freaks among you will probably have heard of Sweden’s OBSCURA already. The band did record / release three demos ever since their origin in early 1997 and also played the Gothenburg Deathfest once. […]
Stupid bandname, stupid album title and incredibly stupid coverart… those were the first three thoughts of mine when I got a copy of the first full-length of the South France based four-piece IMPERIAL SODOMY (a mini CD with another stupid title – “Piss On Love” – already got released back in 1998). Luckily the guys’ […]
One year after their demo “Decayed In The Pecaminous Profoundness”, Brazilian Death Metallers IMPETUOUS RAGE strike back with their debut album called “Inverted Redemption”. For those not aware of the band, IMPETUOUS RAGE play old school Death Metal with the usual influences and contrary to most contemporary bands, they do not sound boring and some […]
Second album for this German two-piece Black Metal act in two years only under Perverted Taste, after releasing two demos in 2005, and first time I face one of their recordings. Since the first listening of the first track I thought it wasn’t necessary to know from where they come from, because their sound says […]
From the bands I remember that started with Osmose, this is quite the only one that has been loyal to the label… or maybe vice versa… and I think they were one of their best selling bands if not the best at one point. Well, long gone are the times of the great demo, as […]
I am not the expert when it comes to IMPALED NAZARENE, but the way I see their case, it seems they follow the same path than BATHORY, DESTRUCTION, KREATOR and SODOM did before them, beginning with crude, disjointed and tongue-in-cheek songs about Satan and goats to finally come up with classic formatted Thrash. Along the […]
