Solfernus
“Neoantichrist”. What an awesome release! From the first track I understood
what kind of material it will be! It is a sort of simple but powerful Blackened
Metal which catches you from the first riff. Sometimes it’s a Black Metal
blasting, sometimes it’s a pure Thrash attack, sometimes it’s a slow
atmospheric grooving moment but always catching. Also, I should mention some
interesting features as an acoustic flamenco guitar, atmospheric keys and
guitar insertions and various vocals from clean to hysterical. Vocals has some unique
Czech atmosphere, if you had heard at least Master’s Hammer or Root you know
what I mean. By the way some musicians from Root are playing in SOLFERNUS. In
conclusion, I recommend “Neoantichrist” to all fans of a good powerful Unholy
Metal.
Zardens
- Blackness Unfolds (2015) During the listening of “Blackness Unfolds” I had
impression that it is some unknown DISSECTION’s material. After the atmospheric
guitar intro the track “The Berserker” simply blows you head away. And so the
other tracks are. Guitars show a different work from the grim arpeggio to the
intensive Black Metal tremolo with a good melodies and atmosphere. And don’t
forget a guitar leads! Sound of album is rather clear so even basslines could
be checked. Basslines also have a good piece of melodies and makes material
deeper and more interesting. Rhythmically we have variability from the
thrashing moments and blasting to the slow groovy stuff. In conclusion: if you
like DISSECTION you will like ZARDENS “Blackness Unfolds” exactly.
Violent
Frustration a brutal and aggressive death metal Lp. Peace Was Never An Option
is a brutality of pure death metal disc from beginning to end, guttural voices
and very direct music, riff crushing a direct proposal. The Germans have death
passages that link with thrash and make the music quite combative, here I leave
the first part of the album to check: Obedient Dogs, Idiot Warfare, Nice To
Meat You, Death List Birthmachine, The White Man still very brutal and imactant
songs, remind me of the first wave of death bands of Usa. Then we can listen to
the second part of the album: I Monstrosity, Giving Peace The Middle Finger,
Philosophy Of Hypocrisy, Our Levelled Town, Nonsense Presumed Dead, Je Suis
Fuck You, The Browner Of Two Evils, Yes We Kill, Work And Bleed, Iron Maidan.
Remember that this type of bands remind us that there is a lot of level in the
international metal very brutal and impeccable highly recommended.
Cavernicular vs. Violent Frustration Split/Lp. of Violent Frustation second Lp.
of the Germans that I have to review and really that brutality of disc a more
direct and concrete proposal is this since it is extreme of beginning and
finally voices, under guitar and drums to the thousand percent. Grindcore and
death metal of the most brutal. Here I leave you to enjoy the set list of the
LP: Better Off Dead,
Born Too Privileged, The Beast (s) Of Belgium, Angela Merkel Sextape, Ordinary
Bloodshed, Die For The Cause, Take My Heart (And My Liver And My Kidney), Fear
Of The Sun, Zu Deutsch Für Deutschland. If you want to know more about the
band. I recommend them for everything and if you have plan.
Sereignos the title of CD “Total Havoc” describes the content rather
exact. It’s a raw primitive intensive Death/Black Metal. Sereignos plays
carelessly and chaotically; drums and guitars are sounding separately and
hysterical vocal is screaming over it without tempo. I’m sure that these guys
full with evil and hate but in the total they sound like raging teenagers in a
basement. I should to add that specific atmosphere of the basement shown in a
proper way, it seems like you listen to some old-school demo with not bad
sound. Anyway if you feel enraged and wanna kill everyone “Total Havoc” is
pretty good choice as a soundtrack for it.
