I’ve had a hit and miss relationship with Mexico’s Hacavitz since their bulldozing debut, “Venganza” surfaced in 2005. That relationship has seen a further three albums out of which I have preferred the 2010’s “Metztli Obscura” primarily because it was… Continue Reading →
The promo blurb opens with “Death metal was meant to be an assault on the senses …” and this Australian quintet are certainly doing what they can to make sure their début album does exactly that. Granted there are moments… Continue Reading →
I understand that this album is a re-release on the basis that the original had limited exposure, as is the way when bands on a limited budget can only do so much. Now released through the Aesthetic Death label and… Continue Reading →
It’s funny but I’ve been listening to a lot of late eighties, early nineties stuff recently for the usual confluence of synchronicity reasons. I say funny, but it’s just that it put me in the right mindset to approach NZ… Continue Reading →
The band name and album title give no doubt that this is a blackened death death work. The band in question is from Turkey and this is their first full album release following an EP “Perversion Feeds Our Force” in… Continue Reading →
If any genre of metal could lay claim to being the purest, most distilled version of metal – more metal than metal – then the one espoused by Emperor-look-a-like band The Furor must be it. Drenched in battling solos, down-tuned… Continue Reading →
After causing a splash with a 20-minute EP earlier this year, Australian musical extremists Ur Draugr have quickly followed up with a full-length release. Safe to say anyone who enjoyed having their brain cells put through that blackened death metal… Continue Reading →
With members from South East Asia and Europe, Abyssal Vortex are essentially an international super-group, comprising current and historic representation from Absence of the Sacred, Impiety, Rudra, Soilwork, Scarve and Aborted. The European connection is drummer Dirk Verbeuren who as… Continue Reading →
Having a band member from Impiety is for me a point of interest, and this is the case here. The band member in question’s time with the Singaporean extremists was in fact short-lived, and Cohol themselves have been going since… Continue Reading →
It’s probably best to start off by stating that Angelcorpse are pretty much my favourite band of all time. When they disbanded (again) in 2009 and news came of guitarist Gene Palubicki releasing material intended for the fifth Angelcorpse CD… Continue Reading →
It’s funny that the cover art to this one immediately reminded me of Impiety’s ‘Skullfucking Armageddon’, as Decapitated Christ are self-confessed fans of those Singaporean nuts. Over the course of three albums, this Spanish five-piece has (apparently) made it its… Continue Reading →
Listening to Impiety is the musical equivalent of going large. Extremity is not enough for this band. Once again I lock blasphemous horns with these monsters from Singapore, having exposed myself to harm on many occasions over their 20 years… Continue Reading →
