The release on Memento Mori in itself implies that \u201cprogressiveness\u201d is in second place here. So it is: in front of us is very heavy, weird and gloomy death metal which the Spanish label has always preferred. Complex musical constructions only make it even more unfriendly. Perhaps, this is their only function - in my view, all this could have been played in more traditional sizes, but it\u2019s the band's decision. Good and atmospheric album, which requires a lot of time for listening.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\u00a0<iframe style=\"border: 0; width: 350px; height: 820px;\" src=\"https:\/\/bandcamp.com\/EmbeddedPlayer\/album=4218419459\/size=large\/bgcol=333333\/linkcol=2ebd35\/package=2961397124\/transparent=true\/\" seamless=\"\"><a href=\"https:\/\/barus.bandcamp.com\/album\/drowned\">Drowned by Bar\u00fas<\/a><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><strong>GOAT EXPLOSION \u2013\u00a0Rumors of Man<\/strong><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #008080;\">Year of release:<\/span>\u00a02018<br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #008080;\">Label:<\/span>\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/intoendlesschaos.de\/\">Into Endless Chaos Records<\/a><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #008080;\">Rating:<\/span>\u00a0<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">6,3\u00a0\/ 10<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Very characteristic Heavy \/ Stoner Metal, just so much so that nothing to say.

But the cover, made in the spirit of the design of fantastic books in the 70s, is already causing serious curiosity. And the publisher's name finally convinces that this release should be paid attention to. In fact, Singaporeans perform very unusual and atmospheric music, which could serve as a good soundtrack for a dark and slightly psychedelic Sci-Fi series. The riffs, collected along the bottom of the barrel of various Doom Metal styles, are strong but the keyboard parts are even better; they really make difference. It is noteworthy that Mirai Kawashima (SIGH) is responsible for the majority of the synth parts. Apparently, this is the whole secret. I recommend to listen to this album.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\u00a0<iframe style=\"border: 0; width: 350px; height: 589px;\" src=\"https:\/\/bandcamp.com\/EmbeddedPlayer\/album=4168759559\/size=large\/bgcol=333333\/linkcol=e99708\/package=258656062\/transparent=true\/\" seamless=\"\"><a href=\"https:\/\/onsetdoomachine.bandcamp.com\/album\/unstructured-dissemination\">Unstructured Dissemination by O n s e t<\/a><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><strong>RODENT EPOCH \u2013\u00a0Rodentlord<\/strong><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #008080;\">Year of release:<\/span>\u00a02018<br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #008080;\">Label:\u00a0<\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/www.saturnalrecords.com\/web\/\">Saturnal Records<\/a><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #008080;\">Rating:<\/span>\u00a0<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">6,8\u00a0\/ 10<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Driving, malicious and very nasty black metal. A press release proudly states that this release will kill your ego and pull out the dirty animal essence. I have heard more brutal records, but the statement as a whole is justified. All the ingredients of old extreme metal are mixed here - blood, guts, shit, sexual perversions, vomit, satanism, unmotivated violence, occultism, black magic, necrophilia, and so on. Plus killer design of the CD. It is a pity that the music as such has let us down - nothing interesting happens in it, as the group was ashamed to go all the way and flop into a totally piggy madness.

Having formed in 1990 (and having broken up a year later, to return in 2015), RUIN remain faithful to the primitive traditions of the genre. Therefore, their album is stupid, aggressive, dirty and powerful, like an overgrown retard. And that's a compliment. The band tried very hard to make \u201cHuman Annihilation\u201d consistent with the spirit of the old era in everything, from music to the cover.The deaf sound and the merciless nature of the album will scare away many, but those who love to lie in other people's guts have every chance to get a new favorite. In fact, after such albums you do not understand how bands like MONSTROSITY, HATE ETERNAL, DECAPITATED, etc. can be attributed to Death Metal genre. The real metal of death is here before you.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\u00a0<iframe style=\"border: 0; width: 350px; height: 853px;\" src=\"https:\/\/bandcamp.com\/EmbeddedPlayer\/album=1875717671\/size=large\/bgcol=333333\/linkcol=e99708\/package=1719723999\/transparent=true\/\" seamless=\"\"><a href=\"https:\/\/trdmc.bandcamp.com\/album\/human-annihilation\">Human Annihilation by The Ruin Death Metal Cult<\/a><\/iframe><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u0414\u0432\u0430\u0434\u0446\u0430\u0442\u044c \u0432\u0442\u043e\u0440\u043e\u0439 \u0432\u044b\u043f\u0443\u0441\u043a \u043a\u0440\u0430\u0442\u043a\u0438\u0445 \u043e\u0431\u0437\u043e\u0440\u043e\u0432.
