Ripping, maniacal First Wave inspired Black/Death/Doom and even NWOBHM inspired Metal from Rochester, NY. Features members of the awesome Doom Metal band Odoruin and Dan Lilker from Brutal Truth/Nuclear Assault/Venomous Concept. Ron Blackwell’s snarling vocals are not for the weak or Mastadon obsessos. Excellent bass & guitar playing throughout. A solid mix of Autopsy, Venom, The Accüsed, recent Darkthrone & Entombed.

(((((1))))) Downward spiraling intro with a slight early Swedish DM feeling. Very strong riffs/bass work. Not far from Autopsy and things they inspired like Nihilist/Entombed. Goes into…
(((((2))))) Bombastic & sludgy, creeping 80’s style Black Metal with Venom-like bass and some nice & nasty mic work. Bonus for using words like: “miasma", "abject" and "wellspring”.
(((((((3)))))) Hell-hammering into the crypts where a post-Autopsy Martha Splatterhead lives.
(((((((4))))))) Fast and slayin’-bare bones 80’s Black/Death. Do you like songs about gladiators? You better ‘cause this WILL KICK YOUR ASS!
(((((5))))) Galloping, bassy, Black/Death Metal with messy but awesome speed and aggression. Then some infectious doomy/traditional breaks.
((((((6))))))) (Bestially) bursts right out with vocals that sound like one of the hell demons from the cover of Death’s “Scream Bloody Gore”. Crazy near grind parts then back to the abyssic conjurations.
(((((7))))) Trippy psychedelic horror-movie style interlude with slow strummed guitar, bass hum and electronics.
((((((8))))) Waaay heavy Doom into catchy as hell Autopsy/current Darkthrone blasts, blurs and riff rides.
(((((((9)))))) Opens with a riff that says “Fuck you-this is REAL METAL!” which thrashes wildly into many amazing directions. Room clearing vocals = all the better in this case.
(((((10))))) Raw & gnarly Angel Witch cover. Killer bass and drumming, even more ‘fuck off” type of vocals.
((((((11)))))) Lyrically interesting tune about the Holocaust. Doomy and crushing then mid-paced pummeling ‘ala Autopsy and Venom. Swipes a riff from Entombed’s “Sinner’s Bleed” near the end, too.
