Death Metal / Grindcore / Thrash metal

Třetí album americké death metalové kapely. After a six-years stasis, American death metallers UNDER EDEN return with their 3rd album! Continuing with the sci-fi and alien conspiracy themes of its predecessor, the new album chronicles the influence of extraterrestrial beings over humanity's creation, evolution and history against a backdrop of melodic, brutal and technical death metal elements. Having a refreshed line-up with new singer and drummer, the band has a more mature sound on the new tracks. Guest vocals appearances by Melissa Ferlaak (Plague of Stars, ex-Aesma Daeva, ex-Visions of Atlantis) and Justin Howland (ex-Dawn of Valor). Cover artwork by Finnish artist Juha Vuorma. Cd edition includes an exclusive bonus live track.

Precizní old school death / black metal z Austrálie. Digipack. Australian black/death metal band Vahrzaw have been perfecting their sound since the early '90s and creating a blend of the two styles that doesn't sound like anything else out there. At this stage their music has evolved enough to make it sound almost progressive in nature, where they take the best elements of both the styles, throw in some thrash metal elements, a tinge of melody, and create their own palette and go about their inimitable way of expressing themselves using unique and vivid brush strokes with colours both familiar and bold. It's likely to get lost in their deceptive, constantly changing, labyrinthine structures which fool the listener into thinking he's been there before and the next minute he's contending with a completely different soundscape. None of it comes across as jarring just because it's so coherently and expertly done and he's compelled to experience it all over again to make sense of this...

Temný atmosférický death metal z Francie. Digipack. Emanating as if from the foul-smelling, poisoned swamps, the music of debutants Viande will make you claw at your throat, enveloping you in suffocating darkness, and before you know it, it will have on your knees gasping for air, with a blood-stained bag on your head. Soon enough the clobbering begins in pitch black darkness and amidst the mind-numbing cacophony, with eerie sounds ringing about, one thing becomes clear - there are stranger, darker forces involved here. More than just another dark death metal band, Viande are conjuring up different sounds and atmospheric elements to create a truly terrifying form of death metal, one that doesn't wallow in misery for too long and is more content bashing skulls in. The full length remains an amorphous exercise in darkness, be it with the use of bestial-sounding primordial catharsis, harrowing doom-laden passages, or just their own kind of unsettling industrial ambience, they're on to...

Precizní death metalový projekt. Digipack. VLTIMAS have been legends since the dawn of metal. Flo Mournier has been drumming for Cryptopsy since their earliest exhumations of the Canadian underground. Rune Eriksen took hold of axe-wielding duties for the second coming of Mayhem. And who could forget David Vincent, the larger-than-life vocalist for Morbid Angel. But these devils weren’t content with living amongst the gods. Instead, they’ve joined forces as the legendary heroes of the underworld. Their first album as VLTIMAS was greeted with a rapturous procession of devil horns. Something Wicked Marches In was voted album of the year by Zero Tolerance Magazine and BangerTV. “Likely to knock listeners asses to the ground with outlandish brute force”, praised Blabbermouth. With EPIC, VLTIMAS ascend to even greater Satanic heights. “Miserere” howls across a blackened sky, blistered by tremolo picking that’s more piercing than a siren’s call. True to its name, “Scorcher” is...

Old school death metal ze Švýcarska. Digipack. Swiss death metal band Vomitheist are the latest purveyors of sick, festering death metal that imbibe the best elements of the classic death metal bands and give the music a twisted interpretation of their own. They somehow manage to blend the HM-2 driven Swedish death metal sound with the ugly, slimey sound propagated by the likes of American bands such as Autopsy and make it work exceedingly well. Vomitheist take their time to flesh out their compositions, making the riffs punchy and nasty, and ensuring that they stick out rather than get lost in the miasma of cosmetic distortion. The music of Vomitheist works on the basis of excellent songwriting alone; the rest is bonus. Truth is, on their debut full length itself, they have nailed it all - substance, sound, aesthetics - and delivered the complete package. Despite oozing with filth, the sound upholds the crunchiness and possesses enough clarity to allow for each note to be...
