GUTTER MEAT CLITTER: REBELLION OF SICK REPTILES

GUTTER MEAT CLITTER: REBELLION OF SICK REPTILES

   The latest offering from international Slam outfit, Gutter Meat Clitter, is a consistent affair, of pure Slamming brutality and dinosaur themes, what more could you want? Rebellion Of Sick Reptiles comprises of eight, skull pounding tracks of brilliantly produced Brutal Slamming Death Metal, highly reminiscent of, and paying great homage to the sub-genre godfathers, such as; Disfigurement Of Flesh, Katalepsy and Kraanium. 
   The production here cannot be faulted, unlike the lyrics, the music is delivered in crisp, clean and clear quality. "Global Warming" starts proceedings with all the low-end booming fury that your ears can tolerate, sickening gutturals and a drum program on overdrive. The thunderous rhythms continue into, "Necrophagous", a short and sweet track of rapturous extremity. The title, "Punisher", does the song justice, describing it perfectly, as the listener is subjected to unforgiving barrages of ultra distorted, stomping, Slamming riffs and drum battery. "Carnivore Hunter" changes tact slightly, with a faint touch of technicality accompanying the hammering brutality, before "Cornered Predator", reverts the sound back to pure, primitive, caveman Slam.    
   The Slams continue to drop like rain, as every track seems to be crammed to bursting point with bouncing, intoxicatingly groovy riffage, as, "Extinct", demonstrates plainly. "Reptile Gangs", verges on Deathcore in nature, with walls of solid chugging and breakdowns. The final track, "Great Extinction", is the crowning moment of the album, incorporating manic speeds, slowly building Slams and deeply inaudible gutturals, mashed together and delivered with undeniable intensity.
   Admittedly, if it is diversity, technicality and atmospherics that you seek, then you will not find it here. If, however, it is merciless, brutish Brutal Slamming Death Metal that you desire, then Gutter Meat Clitter have it here in abundance. Overall, Rebellion Of Sick Reptiles is a well produced, simplistic and savage effort, well worth listening to.

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: 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...
