(recenzija) Goat Torment – Forked Tongues (Season of Mist)

Leave a comment

Goat Torment dolaze iz Belgije i ovo im je treći dugosvirajući opus. Ovaj bend svojom glazbom stvara apokaliptičnu atmosferu beznađa, tenkovskih gusjenica koje gaze hrpr lubanja i kostiju mrtvih neprijatelja, ispod čeličnosivog prelijepog neba. Meni slika ljepote, a tebi? Pri tom se uopće ne šalim niti je ovo sarkazam. Ovaj opus nudi 9 pjesama, a glazba Goat Torment je neki blackened death metal, odlično odsviran i napisani koji naginje više na onu death metal stranu od black metala. Znači, blastovi, brzina, blitz gitare sa natruhom melodije tu i tamo i vokalom koji više growla i pjevanje se može reči da je totalno deathersko kao npr Behemoth ili Belphegor. Ima tu i tamo i sporijih atmosferičnijih dijelova kao u mom favoritu Cursed. Pjesme kao što su Forked Tongues, Profanation ili Ravenous Ghouls će vas sigurno usrećiti u vašem tamnom srcu ako volite ovakvu vrstu metala.

(review) Nocturnal Graves – An Outlaw´s Stand (Season of Mist)

Leave a comment

Australia has very active and great extreme music underground scene and although it is on the other side of the world, music knows no boundaries. Nocturnal Graves just released their new full length opus with Season of Mist and it is their fourth full length in eighteen years of existence. What can we expect on this one? Total annihilation, brutality, energy and apocalypse! Gutwrenching fast drumming, blistering fast solos with some melody thrown here and there for good measure, some slower rolling parts reminding me of best Morbid Angel times and above all growling angry vocals from pits of Hell themselves. Nocturnal Graves took what they needed from death, black and thrash metal leaving only bloody smoldering corpse on the ground. This one is wicked, fast, no holds barred lesson in blackened death metal. Songs like Death to Pigs, Ruthless Fight or Law of the Blade are for sure winners. Go get this one. Just what you need to lighten up your blackened heart and give you energy for new battles.

WOLVES OF HADES and BLOOD:SUN.:BONE:BLOOD:. RECORDS are elated to announce the brand new full length by the German black metal recluses of KLUIZENAER called

A first track, “Es Verbrennt Sich” is unveiled on the YouTube-channel of Wolves Of Hades:

Here, the listener is lured in with abstract sound arrangements, building to fulminant drones of near-orchestral magnitude, then immersed in towering waves of abyssal guitars, soaring in melancholic beauty, before crushing downward with Cyclopean force, burying even the reminiscence of light beneath its mass. Thundering blast beats descend in torrents through otherworldly nebulae, then plunge into pitch black waters; casting rushing, rhythmic waves of driving mid-tempo, or slowly freezing as colossal glaciers in passages of pulsating doom. As echoes on the walls of collapsing cathedrals and abandoned throne rooms comes a clamour of desperate screeches; furious shouting, vicious screams, at times even solemn singing and cavernous growls.

Though spewn forth with both aggression and malice, the voices recite poetic contemplations of transience, insignificance, desolation and spite. ‘EIN ABBILD DER LEERE’ is a depiction of emptiness sculpted from sound, image and emotion.
A graven idol, cast into form in collaboration between Breath:Sun.:Bone:Blood:. records and Wolves of Hades.
