ENTRAILS: WORLD INFERNO

ENTRAILS: WORLD INFERNO

Old-school Death-Metal is not dead, despite what some "trve" and "kvlt" fans may believe. For proof of this, check out Entrails' phenomenal new album, World Inferno. Packed full of, Entombed and Dismember worshiping putrid buzz-saw riffs and filthy death-growls, World Inferno is a sterling effort that is sure to please even the most avid Death-Metal maniacs. 
   Upon listening to Entrails, it is clear that these guys are more than just a nostalgia band, you can hear that they are obviously passionate fans and listeners of the old ways themselves, which is apparent throughout World Inferno, whether it is on the Vomitory-esque, "Into Eternal Fire", or "Serial Murder (Death Squad)", which carries clear echos of, At The Gate's seminal, Slaughter Of The Soul.
   The title track, "World Inferno", opens the album in top form, complete with an eerie introduction that then launches into a full throttle death storm, bringing the classic Scandinavian sound to your ears in corpse ripping style. "Condemned To The Grave", changes the pace marginally, with slow building, menacing riffs that are guaranteed to get heads banging and maybe even corpse rising from the crypts. "The Soul Collector" is another perfect example of Entrails' mastery, bringing the chugging to a rhythmic, almost groovy level, making it another standout track. "Suffer" turns the filth up to 11, in spectacular Death-grind fashion, armed with intense drumming and, of course, bucket loads of riffs, not to mention a delightfully simple chant-worthy chorus. "The Hour Of The Casket" is another heavyweight standout, embodying the very essence of what old-school Death-Metal is really all about. Closing the album is "The Blood Breed", an entirely evil affair that starts like much of the album, with fast paced riffing and drumming, dripping with grotesque brilliance, but the difference here is the incredible use of acoustic guitars and bellowing growls introduced midway through the track, that closes the album in a magnificent and memorable way.  
   All in all, World Inferno is an impressive album, full of the Death-Metal spirit and musical arsenal that makes it so appealing to the devoted masses. It may not be, Left Hand Path, or Last One On Earth, but it is certainly an enjoyable effort and a worthy descendant.

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....

NO NONSENSE METAL REVIEWS: THE TOP 10 ALBUMS OF 2021

  NO NONSENSE METAL REVIEWS: THE TOP 10 ALBUMS OF 2021     Despite lockdowns, travel restrictions and the cancellation of normality as a result of an ever present global pandemic, 2021 has been a very healthy year for heavy music. With the cancellation and indefinite postponement of tours, festivals and live music in general, bands and artists have been forced to explore alternative avenues and express their artistic visions and passions in other ways. The down time away from the road has left bands with schedules empty enough to write and record new material, some of which has proven to be exceptionally strong new albums, EPs and compilations. The phenomena of the "lockdown live album" as well as live streaming events and virtual concerts have also become a commonplace staple in many band's discography, showing defiantly that COVID-19 and the consequent restrictions enforced will never suffocate the breath of creativity or shroud the light of the soul. Making the be...
