FLOWER "Hardly A Dream" LP

FLOWER “Hardly A Dream” LP

The long awaited debut LP from NYC’s FLOWER “Hardly A Dream” is finally set to arrive.

As soon as you drop the needle a dark atmosphere is immediately created with…

Born For Slaughter – “Self Titled” LP

This begins in darkness and gradually gets darker and darker. Fucking ‘grim’ isn’t the word. This Macedonian-based crust-influenced band confront theses somber elements with bare-knuckled ferocity. The opening track ‘As dawn turns black’ to draw comparisons is at times reminiscent of Tragedy. The second song ‘Downfall’ is more unconventional in it’s sound. It is the complex detours in this that…

FORRAEDERI - A Monument to Misery 12"

FORRAEDERI – A Monument to Misery 12″

BeforeI start, I’d like to apologize. My computer is not letting me insert the proper symbol, so I have to type AE instead. That being said… Amazing! It would seem as if these folks are incapable of writing bad material. I’ve had this album in my possession for a little while now and it keeps getting better with every listen. New things seem to pop up while trying to follow the densely woven…

Born For Slaughter / Myteri split EP

Born For Slaughter / Myteri split EP

When putting on this record, I did like most and started flicking through the lyrics. Born For Slaughter from Skopje/Struga (Macedonia) are poetic and reflective in their views of the world. With that they also have great contrast and variance in their sound. Going since 2011 they have done two European tours, a split LP with Silence Means Death and now this superb split 7′ with Myteri. On this,…

Warpath - Oblio

Warpath – Oblio

There are a few punk, death metal and thrash bands called Warpath. This is the crusty punk influenced Warpath based in Milan, Italy. After the breakup of the bands Land of Devastation, Trauma, Attacco alle Menti and Disprogress some ex-members started Warpath who have played noisily in the squat community of Milan since 2009 with various lineups. Since then they have delivered a sound of an…

Repression Attack - Beyond the Instincts 7"

Repression Attack – Beyond the Instincts 7″

Repression Attack from Russia have been unleashing their heavy brand of stenchcore since 2007. This snot green seven inch sees a new line-up. Yet they still retain that heavy sound which is similar in style to the ‘Welcome To The Orgy’ period of Deviated Instinct. As well as combining elements of Misery and ‘Out from the void’ era Antisect. They have progressed since their 2013 album “Altar of…

Gomora - Popel a prach LP

Gomora – Popel a prach LP

Wow there sure were a lot of labels involved in releasing this record. I’ll list them at the end of the review, with links if possible. Gomora open this album with an almost Amebix ambience, perhaps ambience is the wrong word. A very eerie mood, where you feel like your walking on a gloomy moorland in a fog. However this doesn’t last long and any comparison to Amebix stops here. As it really…

Marginal – Chaos and Anarchy LP Belgium's Marginal have that technical type of riffing that Napalm Death has mixed, with at times the growls akin to Extreme Noise Terror.

Dissidence - The Fields of War

Dissidence – The Fields of War

After seeing the cover of this EP, I knew I had to check it out. The cover is similar to perhaps something like Mark Riddick would draw, but with more of a crusty viking vein about it. It was illustrated by Mike Roberts of Portland’s death crust band Vastation. Speaking of which everyone should get to hear their version of Nausea’s ‘Godless’, as covers go it reigns supreme. That is getting off…
