CORPSE VOMIT – DROWNING IN PUKE ( Review by Varg The Mighty )

Today’s review is of Danish Death Metal band Corpse Vomit’s classic debut, celebrating its upcoming reissue.

Mixing a brutality almost comparable with Cannibal Corpse and Carcass’ rock & roll background with a slower approach vaguely reminiscent of Autopsy (although less dark and more straightforward).

Even if this release may feel short, it sure is intense and may appeal to fans of the 90’s heaviest Death Metal acts. If you still don’t have this one, this rerelease is just what you needed. Adding putrid intros to their demented riffs and overall attractively disgusting aura, this album is relentless Extreme Metal at its finest. My personal highlights are “Disembowelment” and “Reeking Cunt”.

I recommend this album to fans of Death Metal and Brutal Death Metal. My rating is of 8/10.

Concrete - "Ethereal Atrocities" - (Old School Death Metal / Bulgaria)

Release Date: September 25, 2021 FFO: Cannibal Corpse, Obituary, Exhumed Back in 2011 Kalin Kolev decided to form a death metal band so he started writing riff material on his own. Soon, somewhere around July the same year, Zhivko Stoyanov, an old friend of Kalin, came into the picture. Kalin asked him if he was willing to play bass in a nameless death metal band and he confirmed without hesitation. Kalin wanted to do vocals also and then it was time to look for a second guitarist and a drummer. Ivan Ivanov, also a good friend of Kalin, was the first and the current person to become second guitar player. The three continued writing riffs and observing ideas and had a couple of songs done pretty fast. The tough part was finding an accurate drummer to play something as challenging as death metal. After going through several players, the band understood that it will be a hard time finding the correct guy. The band went through several name ideas and chose CONCRETE for a permanent solution. On April 18th, 2012 they released their first self-titled EP "Annihilation Of Humans", containing 5 songs. Even though it was recorded in poor conditions it was a strong start and was greatly appreciated by both fans and media. The band used a drum machine for that release. In the summer of 2012 CONCRETE was introduced to Ivo Ivanov (Lord Curse), formerly of a local thrash metal band, named Ira Deum. Kalin, Zhivko and Ivan decided to take a test rehearsal with Ivo and things came out pretty good right from the start. Many shows with local bands followed including opening acts for a couple of foreign colleagues both in venues and open air. In November 2014, founding member Ivan Ivanov (rhythm guitar) decided to part ways with the band. The post was filled soon enough by Peter Dimitrov. The band remained in that lineup until June 2018, when drummer Ivo Ivanov left the band due to personal reasons. His position is filled by Pavlin Nikolov since then. Currently, CONCRETE is located in its hometown Shumen, playing shows and constantly working over new material of PURE DEATH METAL. Check out this video! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fuEi5bbuSrg

Swedish Death Metal Legends UNLEASHED Announce 14th Studio Album, “No Sign of Life”

 

Swedish Death Metal Legends UNLEASHED Announce New Studio Album, No Sign of Life   Out November 12, 2021 via Napalm Records | Pre-Order Starts NOW!   Watch/Listen to Official Lyric Video and Massive New Single "The King Lost His Crown", HERE!

Three years after the release of The Hunt for White Christ (2018), iconic Swedish death metal legends UNLEASHED return with their new studio album, No Sign of Life, out November 12, 2021 via Napalm Records – once again setting the ultimate standard of death metal!   The Swedish crew is led by founding frontman Johnny Hedlund, and features drummer Anders Schultz and two guitarists Tomas Måsgard and Fredrik Folkare – delivering and defining supreme death metal for over 32 years. On No Sign of Life, the band formed of Viking descendants transports the listener straight into an outraging battle with 11 forceful tracks that revive the essentials of death metal, facing the sheer brutality of war. UNLEASHED are back to defend their throne, forging another uncompromising musical weapon that continues the marvelous legacy of Vikings.   To satisfy the bloodthirst, UNLEASHED just released their staggering brand new track from No Sign of Life, entitled “The King Lost His Crown”, alongside a sharp lyric music video. The track dives right in without mercy, dominated by destructive guitars, blasting drums and the well-known chunky and brutal screams of genre-carving vocalist Johnny Hedlund.   Johnny on the first single: “In the aftermath of the battle of Jorsala, where the Midgard Warriors stood victorious, White Christ is now being hunted from the once so holy city. The enemy flees towards the desert, and his armies are about to lose faith in their leader. It seems that the king lost his crown”.

Watch the new lyric video for "The King Lost His Crown” HERE:

The silence gets crushed right within the first notes of the album opener “The King Lost His Crown” and invents a paving rage that leaves no time to catch your breath during its entire playing time. The album unfolds with “Where Can You Flee” as an unstoppable war battalion and builds upon UNLEASHED’s well established trademark sound and strong lyrics. Bare boned screams are accompanied by epic shouts praising Odin and heavy guitar riffs as the journey of clashes continues in “The Highest Ideal”, until the album reaches its glorious peak with “Here at the End of the World” as a fading hymn for the victorious march that leaves the battlefield behind in ashes.   The Chief Vikings of Swedish Death Metal leave no doubt that they are still true to their roots after 32 years of existence. UNLEASHED proves that they indeed are and will stay the unchallenged leaders of Sweden’s death metal forefathers!   UNLEASHED on the album: “It is our hope that our warriors all over the world will enjoy the new album just like they have our previous ones. We have, as always, tried to stick to our roots while testing our steel to develop the genre of Viking Death Metal even further. Hail Odin!

The blistering debut by AVDAGATA, entitled Damnatio Cursus, will be out as CD and Digital formats on October 15, 2021 via Swedish underground powerhouse Black Lion Records!

The idea behind this solo project was to create music and lyrics that are Sebb, reflecting his soul.

With a great help and support from Henric Liljesand (NIGHT CROWNED, CIPHER SYSTEM), Drago’s solo project AVDAGATA became reality; Freddy Ortscheid on drums made the songs even more intense. Listen to another fierce appetizer taken from Damnatio Cursus, just recently AVDAGATA premiered the album opening track:

 

 

Says Drago about the song: "Avdagata, this song is my valve for all wasted years filled with frustration and anger. To take back what is mine. And crush the mental and cosmic shackles!"

 

Recorded at multiple studios featuring several high- class guest musicians, Damnatio Cursus was mixed and mastered by Scott Crocker. This must- have black and death metal solo record will be available on October 15th. To pre-order your copy, visit the Black Lion store at THIS LOCATION!

FUSTILARIAN stream AMOR FATI debut at Black Metal Promotion

Today, uprising black metal classicists Fustilarian stream the entirety of their highly anticipated debut album, All This Promiscuous Decadence, at the Black Metal Promotion YouTube channel. Set for international release on September 15th via Amor Fati Productions on CD format - the vinyl LP version shall follow early next year - hear Fustilarian's All This Promiscuous Decadence in its entirety exclusively HERE.

A mysterious new entity, Fustilarian is the work of one man inspired by the dark vision over human decay, his unnatural world, and the decadence of urban dysphoria. The entity's first public work, All This Promiscuous Decadence comprises eight songs in 43 minutes, bearing an aspect both timeless and palpably modern. Its black metal is undeniably rooted in more traditional Satanic tropes of the '90s, but a subtle or at least underlying layer of the next millennium's introspective BM plays a no-less-vital role.

What results across All This Promiscuous Decadence is a firestorm of molten, muscular surge and almost coolly cruising violence. This dichotomy pays dividends, as Fustilarian drags the listener through catacombs of the self and subconscious, each haunting & hysteric turn as treacherous as the last. The ever-present violence is thusly directed inward as it is outward, furthering that totality which again seems almost effortless for this entity, its confidence bespeaking bottomless depths of darkness in a perverse twist of fate. But, with a stand-to-attention title like All This Promiscuous Decadence, perhaps such perversity shouldn't be surprising at all...

Girded in a powerfully professional production that renders these virulent visions in shocking 3D, All This Promiscuous Decadence firmly puts Fustilarian in esteemed company, from the classic mid/late '90s melodic black metal vanguard to the orthodox/spiritual black metal movement it would engender during the first decade of the 2000s.

Hear all of it for yourself exclusively HERE, courtesy of the Black Metal Promotion YouTube channel. Cover and tracklisting are as follows:

Tracklisting for Fustilarian's All This Promiscuous Decadence
