SPAWNED FROM HATE: PROMO 2018

SPAWNED FROM HATE: PROMO 2018

    Upon listening to their latest release Promo 2018, it is plain to see that UK bringers of brutality, Spawned From Hate have come a long way since their previous offering, the 2015 EP Accelerated Butchery. Containing only 2 tracks, Promo 2018 is short and sweet, which is the only real downside here. That said, every second of the just less than 6 minutes running time is crammed with excellent Death-Metal of the highest standard. 
   Sticking to the style and sounds explored on Accelerated Butchery, Promo 2018 is firmly rooted in the classic Brutal and old-school Death-Metal soil. The first track, "Elective Amputation" is very much in the vein of Perceptive Deception era Disavowed, fused with all the charm and fury of Cannibal Corpse. The opening track is bursting with crushing intensity, thick rhythmic riffs, a decent splash of guitar and bass intricacy, all capped off with Daniel Phipps solid tradition Death-Metal vocals. The speed at which the opening track is delivered is worth mentioning also, as although played at a great rate, none of the musical skill and quality has been compromised or traded off in the pursuit of trying to be the fastest, a rainbow that so many other artists stumble and fall trying to chase.   
  The second and sadly last track of the Promo 2018, "Hereditary Hatred", has an irresistible Suffocation infusion to its sound, resulting from the amazing groovy Slam riffs and sophisticated technical lead guitar work. As the closing track slows towards it's conclusion, the intoxicating vibes of the slide riffs carry the listener into an induced state of compulsive headbanging, leaving you hungry for more.   
   The cohesive musicianship displayed here is flawless. Although both tracks have certain characteristics reminiscent of other pioneering artists, Promo 2018 has a very refreshingly unique edge, showing Spawned From Hate's own musical identity and their massive potential to take the Death-Metal scene by storm.

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...

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....
