The guitarwork on the album is fast and very unrelenting, there isn't a moment on the album where killer riffs aren't pounding you in the face. Lyrics about drinking beer, partying, weed-smoking dragons, the decapitation of hipsters and other killer themes!!!

Asphyx & Hooded Menace - Split '7ep

Genre: Death/Doom
Country: Holland/Finland
Year: 2011





1. Asphyx - We Doom You To Death
2. Hooded Menace - Abode Of the Grotesque    

Asphyx and Hooded Menace are spltting one song, never before released, of each other here. The Hooded Menace song is from the 'Never Cross The Dead' recording session and is easily just as good as any song off that album. Asphyx's song is their first recording with new bass player Alwin Zuur and it is a masterpiece of horrific death-doom. It is insanely heavy and slow and Martin Van Drunen's voice on this, it is just awesome!

This time Wolf are fueled by the power of old Sabbath, Motorhead,Priest and probably lots of booze and drugs to create what is perhaps their most old school album to date.

16. Outro

Killer debut album by Livstid. They've lost the grind elements of their earlier Ep and split, but they still kill. Short to the point songs that rarely clock above the 2-minute mark. There is more than enough variation between the songs due to small nuances in the riffs and speeds. Grinding moments that bring in mind Nasum, melodies that remind old black metal bands, crusty atmosphere and non-stop D-beat filthiness!

3rd album by Milking The Goatmachine, for a 3rd consecutive year. The grind moments are lesser this time, giving more space for a grooving standard-type death metal, and less brutal and extreme. The humour of the band seems to be never ending and furthermore is exactly what their fans expect. The production is excellent, so it sounds nice and fat.

Vektor - Outer Isolation

Genre: Progr. Techn. Thrash
Country: U.S.A.
Year: 2011

1. Cosmic Cortex
2. Echoless Chamber
3. Dying World
4. Tetrastructural Minds
5. Venus Project
6. Dark Creations, Dead Creators
7. Fast Paced Society
8. Outer Isolation

2nd album by Vektor. They continue playing thrash with  all the characteristics of the style. There are the sharp guitar riffs, the screaming vocals and the tight rhythm section, but on the other hand there's plenty of melody and complexity on the songs, that approaches the borders of progressive. The end product is much more aggressive, than their previous releases and often steps fully into blackened thrash. The production is excellent, clear enough to show every detail of the album, but also preserving the raw and old-fashioned feeling of the music.
