Mumakil: Flies Will Starve

MUMAKIL: FLIES WILL STARVE
   Think Grind-Core is dead? Well clearly you haven't heard Flies Will Starve yet. This slab of Death infused Grind perfectly demonstrates just how alive this style of music really is. As with any modern Grind-Core or Death-Grind bands, you can easily detect the musical influences. In other words, this album will satisfy fans of Napalm Death, Nasum, Carcass and Bolt Thrower, but even fans of more straight forward Death-Metal should feel right at home here. As long as you love your music loaded with brain battering brutality, then Mumakil really have got something for everyone.
   The 24 tracks stuffed into this album may last just over 30 minuets, but its 30 minuets of pure mountain crushing riffs, over-driven bass, Satan scaring screams and light speed drumming. Tracks like, "War Therapist", and "Unfair For Whom?", carry that genre defining riff, only describable as being dirty, crushing and mosh inducing. "Get Exorcised" and "Blind Disciples", will prove to be the essential staples for all Grind fans. 
   Overall, this is a brilliantly crafted vessel of heaviness. Full of incredible songs, striking you blow after blow with waves of horrific mastery. There is no doubt, that both Mumakil and Flies Will Starve, really will prove to be, "Fresh Meat For The Grinder".


TRACKS YOU NEED TO HEAR:
  • "War Therapist"
  • "Army Of Freaks"
  • "Behind The Mask"
FOR FANS OF:
  • Nasum
  • Napalm Death
  • Pig Destroyer
  • Brutal Truth

EXODUS: PERSONA NON GRATA

  EXODUS: PERSONA NON GRATA         The Thrash Metal hierarchy has long been constructed around the mainstream success of the American "Big Four", dwarfing their peers outside of the clique with their mass popularity and stratospheric record sales. Thanks to bands such as Exodus, Testament and Overkill, a revolution has begun. The most recent releases from those bands comprising the Big Four have been good at best, while the latest albums from these previously mentioned outsiders have been breathtakingly excellent.    Persona Non Grata is a crushingly heavy slab of solid Thrash Metal. Gary Holt and fellow guitarist Lee Altus whip up a veritable storm of crunchy, Thrashing, whiplash-inducing riffs from start to finish. A superhuman barrage of drum battery is unleashed by Tom Hunting, accompanied by Jack Gibson's booming, thundering and raking bass notes. All the while Steve Souza sings, screams and snarls like a rabid and possessed vocal maestro....

MASSACRE: RESURGENCE

  MASSACRE: RESURGENCE      Like the walking dead, Massacre just keep coming back time after time. Refusing to stay down, this band simply won't die. To survive, Massacre takes on a new form every ascension, this time they have re-emerged as the Kam Lee band, with the legendary vocalist being the most consistent and regular member of the band over the years and through the numerous reformations.   The Massacre that we are faced with here on Resurgence could be considered as something of a Death-Metal supergroup. Comprising the band alongside Kam Lee; we have Mike Borders on bass guitar whom was previously a member of the band for short spell in the mid 1980's, alongside Jonny Pettersson of Wombbath (and countless other bands and projects) and Rogga Johansson of Paganizer (and possibly even more bands and projects than Jonny) on guitars, Brynjar Helgetun on drums, and Memoriam's resident riff-lord Scott Fairfax providing lead guitar. United this band of talented ...

BEAST IN BLACK: DARK CONNECTION

  BEAST IN BLACK:  DARK CONNECTION     Bombastic, heavy, wild and fun, Dark Connection is everything that any obliging listener can expect to hear from Finnish whippersnappers Beast In Black.      Saturated with synths, electronics and plenty of twiddling guitars, the album has a very European (or more specifically Scandinavian) Pop vibe, more prevalent here than on Beast In Black's previous efforts. That said, there is no shortage of cracking riffs, slamming drums and impressive vocals.     Kicking off in dramatic fashion, " Blade Runner " offers up an seizure inducing blur of riffs and crazed keys. Sounding like a disco injected Judas Priest, " Bella Donna " is bizzare yet undeniably infectious and catchy. With a great sing-along chorus, crunchy Metallic riffs and an abundance of synths and keys, " Highway To Mars " is another groovy staple. Offering a little more heaviness, " Hardcore " pounds and thunders along like a softer Sab...
