11th part of the short reviews.
CAVEMAN CULT – Supremacía Primordial
Year of release: 2018
Label: Larval Productions
Rating: 7 / 10
The most remarkable barbaric (in the literal sense) War Metal in the best traditions of the best bands of the style. Metal Negro Antihumano - neither take it away nor add! The only drawback of the release is the extremely short duration - less than 12 minutes. We need more blood!
COSMIC VOID RITUAL – Grotesque Infections of Planetary Divide
Year of release: 2018
Label: Iron Bonehead Productions
Rating: 7,5 / 10
Rough, unpleasant, ugly and gloomy death metal, reminiscent of the dirtiest and hateful records of INCANTATION. The author, whoever he is, excellently realized his idea, although even 18 minutes of sounding are seriously tiring.
NAGAARUM – Apples
Year of release: 2018
Label: Aesthetic Death
Rating: 3 / 10
It's quite normal to expect something fucked up and strange from Aesthetic Death, and NAGAARUM does not deceive expectations. In the case of the Hungarian project, everything is bad - a typical example of a man with creative diarrhea, who constantly wants to pile up another heap of "eclectic" bullshit and give it away for an album. On "Apples", ambient music and various types of metal are mixed, there is also a bit of revolting singing, and only the sick maniacs will listen to it with pleasure.
THRONEUM – The Tight Deathrope Act over Rubicon
Year of release: 2018
Label: Hells Headbangers Records
Rating: 8 / 10
The exact opposite of the above-mentioned album of the Hungarian project. The Poles THRONEUM are tireless suppliers of the ugliest, dirtiest, non-commercial and old Death Metal. Starting the album with the riff borrowed from someone from the classics (I do not remember at all who), they bring down the stream of hellish stinky slime on the listener. If you like the oldest examples of death metal, like SADISTIK EXEKUTION and NECROVORE, you will feel yourself at home.
ЕРЕСЬ – Светоносец
Year of release: 2018
Label: self-release
Rating: 0 / 10
When I saw the news about the release of the fourth album оf the Russian band ЕРЕСЬ, I rejoiced, for "Жестокосердіе" of 2016 was a real killer. Listening to the novelty was a lot of fun, but the worm of doubts still gave me no peace. Having decided for a while to pay attention to the voice of the people, I came across a remark that one of the songs was brazenly stolen from SŌLIS SANGUIS, and then the wall collapsed. As it turned out, Inferior - by the way, the leader of well-known band of INFERIUS TORMENT - simply plagiarized all SŌLIS SANGUIS' music, putting his own vocals on it. The mix differs, but everything is simple here - it was Inferior who was engaged in the sound part of the album of the Yekaterinburg residents, therefore, to adjust the music for "Светоносец" was just a matter of technique. According to the spokesman from the Ridge ov Dragon, Inferior did this as a "revenge" for some disagreement between him and the band. What can I say - trying to fool others, the guy from Omsk put himself a fool with shabby pants. It's a shame, because he sings really cool. Marvelous are your deeds, oh Lord. Now it remains only to guess - maybe, "Жестокосердие" was also plagiarized?
