Expulsion: Nightmare Future

EXPULSION: NIGHTMARE FUTURE

   Expulsion are basically the embodiment of nostalgia. Featuring members of Grind and Gore legends, Repulsion and Exhumed, Expulsion play old-school late 1980's style Grindcore in spectacular style. However, let's make one thing clear, regardless of the fact that this band is probably the product of alcohol fueled musicians reminiscing about the golden era of Grind, Expulsion's debut release, Nightmare Future, is an mind-melting masterpiece. 
   Totaling a very modest 14 minutes running time, Nightmare Future is a short, sharp shock of pure old-school brilliance. Unsurprisingly, the apple has not fallen far from the tree, there are no weird and wild reinventions here, this is just pure Horrified tribute, mixed with a generous helping of classic Death worship, which is to be expected considering the pedigree of the band. 
   Kicking off the album, "Total Human Genocide" whips up a frenzy with all the insane speed, over-driven bass, blast-beats and frantic riffing that you could possibly desire, in a way that would give even, From Enslavement To Obliteration a run for it's money. There is definitely something for everyone here, which just goes to show that these guys are not one-trick ponies. "Alter Of Slaughter" showcases the undeniable Death-Metal influence, with solid hails to Scream Bloody Gore, while the title track, "Nightmare Future", has a distinct punk undertone, reminiscent of the style that, Phobia have perfected over the years. "Funeral Bells" thrashes into view with all the grit and speed of the glory days and does so in a savage yet catchy way, but fear not, because even the tracks with a more dynamic sound are still stuffed full of filthy Grind. 
   Overall, Nightmare Future is a merciless, well produced and charismatic album, keeping the old-school fire alive and breathing. After a few listens, you can't help but wish the album was a few tracks longer, but that aside, this album is guaranteed to satisfy the tastes of most fans of extreme music, and leave you ravenously hungry for more.

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
