Tag Vader
Following hot on the heels of their debut EP – 2013’s ‘Damnati’ – comes the debut full length album from Ordo Inferus. Forming as somewhat of an international underground super group (with Daryl Kahan from Disma/Funebrarum and Martin Halfdan of… Continue Reading →
The greeting is horrible screams and impressive artwork and lyrics which would be entirely in place on any Grindethic album. The emerging and lasting sound is in fact that of Vader, Cannibal Corpse, Carnifex or any other brutal death metal… Continue Reading →
There are very few things in life that are truly certain, the sun will rise, bacon tastes awesome, everyone dies, and a new Vader album will kick serious ass. In my household Vader are simply known as old faithful, with… Continue Reading →
