Massive Assault - Dystopian Prophecies (2009)

1. Forever War

2. Come With Me

3. World Destruction 
4. Weigh Up
5. Man-Kind!?
6. O.S.D.M. 
7. Swallow My Venom
8. The Rival Believer 
9. Dystopian Prophecies

Origin - Netherlands
Style - Death Metal

" Debut full length from this Dutch powerhouse"

" Stylistically Massive Assault are still knee-deep into early Nineties Swedish death metal, with pioneers like Entombed, Dismember but also Dutch bands like Asphyx having left an impact on their sound. Apart from the slightly longer title track which concludes the CD, we get a constant onslaught of death metal pieces that run between three and four minutes "

" Massive Assault don’t like to complicate things, preferring instead to play things the hard and rough way. Switching skilfully between mid-tempo grooves and faster old school riffing, Dystopian Prophecies manages to entertain from beginning to end, but honestly, you won’t find any original ideas on this record "

See you in the grave fuckers.......
Get It!...

" The definitive Funebre collection here !......Both Demo's and the full length "

" This band has the distinction of being one of the earliest DM bands from Finland, and they only lasted about three years. Here we have the re-issued version with the demos....Even today the songs kill very impressively, radiate a certain magic and taking into consideration that Funebre were one of the few well-known bands from Finland back then, you should acknowledge the cult factor after all "

" Heavily influenced by the Swedish scene (Grave),Autopsy,Early Amorphis.....You get a heavy dose of that and more. For those expecting a perfect modern production...Do Not Apply ! This is of the buzzing rumbling type and makes me feel right at home "

Classic Stuff here !.........Dont Miss it.....And the demo's are just icing on the cake.....

" The production is decent and the tracks quite varied......Is this a classic?.....I say yes...They dont make em like this anymore ! "

Origin - USA
Style - Death Metal

" 2010 release from the American Death Metal band. Hailing from Georgia and Texas "

" They've released a well-received demo and EP, both in limited quantities that sold out instantly. Crypt Born And Tethered To Ruin, their ultra-brutal, doomy debut album, will cement the band's place among the premiere acts in the Death Metal underground. Conjuring the specters of the legendary Incantation & Autopsy, it delivers a bracing reminder of the old-school glory days when raw, guttural Death Metal ruled supreme "

" Ok...This record is a Seething,Dark,Rumbling,Raw ,Crushingly heavy, Minimalistic work of art... and not an easy listen !......Folks : we are talkin heavy shit here.....This has an evil ambiance like no LP Ive heard in recent years!....They have managed to produce(or under produce) a murky...Sub-Woofer killing album "

This band has been hyped alot lately as the next great American Death Metal act........I can tell you this......They are off to a great start...Time will tell if they are to be considered one of the all timers.....

Malicious !.........Intent !
Indeed......

2. Storm Apokalypse

3. Calaveras
4. Stench of Evil thru the Mist
5. The Solemn Bleakness

Origin - Spain
Style - Death Metal

" BANISHED FROM INFERNO began life in 2003 as BERENICE BLEEDING until the name was changed in 2007. The band was started by three old friends from Spain and Sweden: Rober (MACHETAZO), Rogga Johansson (PAGANIZER, RIBSPREADER, DEMIURG, EDGE OF SANITY, etc), and Phlegeton (WORMED, GODÜS, HUMAN MINCER, etc). Their aim was to play evil, old school Death Metal influenced by Hellhammer, Celtic Frost, Obituary, Dark Throne and other classic bands "

" Banished From Inferno put out this 5 tracker with enthusiasm and gusto while hitting all of the requisite genre elements. Catchy songs based around simple riffs, good variations in tempo to spice things up a bit, and decent production that, although intentionally rough and sloppy, retains a great deal of power and heft. And a killer cover of “Into The Crypts of Rays” at the end of the last track (hang around for it) "

What would you expect from this kind of talent?..........Full length in the worx...

Recommended !

Shut Up !......Before I put you back in the trunk !

11. Dressed in Death

Origin - Sweden
Style - Black Metal

" Don't panic....You are still on the Underworld !....I am not known for my Black metal mastery...But I do listen to Black Metal when its fits my certain criteria. 1. Must be well produced(no lofi shit) 2.Must be well played(please:learn how to play an instrument before painting face)3.Have the attitude that the genre stands for(finger paints do not make you cult). That being said: We are here to discuss The Ugly from Stockholm,Sweden "

" The Ugly (sounds punk..Dont it?)formed in 2004 with the intention of playing metal without tags..And I can tell you...They have achieved this and more.Thrashened Black Metal with a hint of Death Metal (I think I just invented a sub-genre?)is whats on hand and it kicks holy ass "

" Rippin' Thrashing Swedish Black Metal kicks off this record and never stops until the last track is done....But dont think The Ugly is a one trick pony...There is enough time changes and difference in the tracks to not become boring. The guitars are crisp and crunching(not often found in Black metal)The drums are produced right....The vocals are nasty and the bass(well..everything cant be perfect). "

" Its the attitude on this record that I dig....A kind of Snotty-Nosed Punkish Fuck You and the horse you rode in on attitude that is refreshing....Just check out the track 'Black Metal Punks' and you will see what I mean "

Fans of Thrashy Black Metal and Blackened Death Metal...Check This out !
A true Black Metal Hammer !

Kissed By The Serpent !.........Ahhh Whatever!

" 8 full length's into a long and distinguished career....You would think a band would run out of idea's?........Did Immolation?.............Nope !  "

" On this new opus Immolation crushes everything in its path !......With that certain sense of doom to it...And the solo guitars we have come to know and love...Building and weaving like a black widow making its nest. Ross Dolan easily has some of the most convincing vocal's in Death Metal today..And this record is no different "

" What gets me about this Lp is the way the tracks wind and build up to the end all with a complexity and appreciation for the art of the Song. Check out the title track with its spiral riffing and awesome solo !Truly a great Death Metal Track ! Production wise: Very heavy,Organic sounding and bassy but clear to where you can take in all the seperate instruments in one listening "

A simply Monstrous and Vicious start to 2010 !

Burial Ground !..........For Me !

recording at Soundlab Studios for the Murder Death Kill album "

" You know what to expect from Rogga and the boys....Murderous Death Metal with that groove and a bit of Thrash in there. Tracks 1-2 kill...Especially 'The Festering Of Sores'....With its heavy lurching breakdown in the middle "

" The rest varies in value and production....But well worth the listening....If you are a Rogga Fan"

" CD with two demos recorded between 2006 and 2007. These two demos were never put

" Influenced by old school Swedish death....These Spaniards unleash a putrid collection of tracks influenced strongly by early Unleashed etc. Slow to mid-tempo is the order of the day with deep vocals and a decent production (Actually better on the second half) As tracks 8-13 are a bit heavier "

" Nothing new..Or shit you haven't heard...But this is quite good and am looking forward to further releases from these guys "

" Whoa.....This one surely took me by surprise !.......Seeing media types comparing bands is always a laugh for me..Cause they are usually wrong....So seeing such names as Behemoth,Nile,Emperor being heavyweight names made me hesitate to hear this...But Im glad I did. "

" Im not saying you dont hear some influences from said acts.....But just because you hear middle eastern style music does not mean it sounds like Nile. Aeternam brings a symphonic epic style of Death Metal....That reminds of Septic Flesh as much as anything...Even that is probably off. This Lp has it all....Epic passages consisting of deep growls,blazing leads,outstanding melodies and some fine clean voice singing "

" This album is a power house of epic, catchy tracks and I for one dig it......

" Let's talk about the music within: On tracks 1-10 (new stuff) you get a heavy grooving Death metal style in the scandanavian tradition...Catchy,Rumbling,Growling tracks....Great stuff !
The demo track's are of course..More raw, More Grinding or much more brutal..with a deep distorted voice....Also good in its own way "
 
Again this is a great package..And well worth the $...As you get more than a hour worth of music...Basically encapsulating Garcharot's entire career !
