SHURIKEN TORTURE: CADAVERIC DEFILEMENT OF DEPRAVITY

SHURIKEN TORTURE: CADAVERIC DEFILEMENT OF DEPRAVITY

   If generic, repetitive, unchallenging Slam is your thing, then this is the release for you. Cadaveric Defilement Of Depravity, the debut EP from Chilean Slam duo Shuriken Torture, is a 6 song stack of primitive, very basic yet well executed and strangely entertaining aggression. The whole EP follows the orthodox Slam path strictly, fitting in comfortably with; Inhuman Entity, Slamophiliac and Sex Murder Art in terms of sound and style. That said, Shuriken Torture's debut release is nothing if not an entertaining and worthy listen.   With drum machines in full swing and sludgy riffs aplenty, opening track "Penetrated And Dissected" is as generic and essentially uninventive as it gets, although it does deliver a handful of solid riffs and blastbeats, which could easily have been lifted straight from an early Kraanium track.   "Necrorgy" has a touch more creativity and a hint of originality about it, armed with some formidable bass heavy Slams, note worthy guitar work and admirable gutturals. The disturbingly yet very typically Slam titled, "Bloody Rape Bondage" is undeniably a notch more brutal than the previous tracks, unleashing a blizzard of blastbeats upon unready and unsuspecting ears, as well as some genuinely crushing grooves.    "Impaled Master Dominatrix" takes the Slams up to another level of intensity, along with some more intricately worked notes and hyper speed Slams, which are prolonged to usher in the EP's highlight track, "Prollapse Anal Collapse". This track does have a distinctive charm about it, not just because it is highly reminiscent of Korpse and Embryectomy, but also because it's furious old-school heavy rhythmic riffs, menacing bass tones and a memorable building-leveling Slam breakdown.    Closing track and most questionably titled track of the EP, "Spanking My Cocks, Ejaculating Blood", is far more generic and dull in comparison to it's predecessors, showing not much more than some insane drumming and some pleasant riffing.      Overall, Cadaveric Defilement Of Depravity is a solid Slam effort and a sturdy debut release. The EP does show a fair amount of promise, with some good and honest moments, but unfortunately is unlikely to leave a lasting impression, or help Shuriken Torture to achieve Slam stardom. Here's hoping that Cadaveric Defilement Of Depravity's follow up is as sharp and deadly as Shuriken Torture's name suggests.

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 Sabaton, befo

No Nonsense Metal: Top 10 Albums Of 2013!

No Nonsense Metal  Top 10 Albums Of 2013!    2013 has proven to be a monumental year for extreme music. We have witnessed the return of some of the greatest pioneering acts Metal music has ever seen, as well as a succession of future legends solidifying their place within our realms. It is fair to say that 2013 holds some of the best Metal releases of all time, but within it also resides some of the most spectacular misfires ever to insult mortal eardrums. Focusing on the positive aspects of the years releases, here is a round up of 10 albums that 2013 shall truly be remembered for. Undoubtedly, this list of albums will (and should) be fairly predictable, reminding you of the incredible strides extreme music has made within the last year. However, it should also highlight just how much can change within a 365 day stretch, and just how much Metal music can terraform within that time. So lets hope 2014 lives up to the achievements of 2013. Bring on the brutality!  10- MEGADETH:
