I listened to a sample of what was a three minute extract of “Lost Fulcrum”, the first track on this album. I was attracted to the deep and chunky six string bass sound and wanted to hear more. Human Beansauce… Continue Reading →
Banisher are a technical death metal band hailing from Rzeszow in Poland. They’ve been kicking around since 2005 but only released their debut album, ‘Slaughterhouse’, in 2010. This is a very dynamic, relentless album, faster & more intense than their… Continue Reading →
