bone gnawer--feast of flesh cd {pulverized rec.}{done by patrick}
now this is what horror/gore metal should sound like! bone gnawer
feature some great musicians within the u.s/swedish scenes.kam lee
{legendary vocalist}rogga johanson{paganizer} morgan lie{from the
swedish black metal masters naglfar} as well as "guest appearances"
from killjoy and dopi{machetzo} the music these metal masters create on
feast of flesh is pure genius.fast upbeat thrashing old-school death
metal.even some slower slam style moments creep into the bands brutal
sound.each song is well-written and thought out and sounds different
from the next to let each song stand on their own.fans of early
autopsy,early 90's floridia style death metal should defintly look for
bone gnawer.

cyclotron--into a subconscious surreality demo {self-released}{done by patrick}
this is a demo i have been waiting to hear for a few months now.and
germany's cyclotron do not disapoint one bit.7 tracks of
brutal,technical death metal with grind influences.for those of you
who have heard the "debut" demo from cyclotron.the band seems to be
moving away from the expirmental/industrial influences which were a big
part of the bands debut.on "into a subconscious surreality"the band has
gone more in the "technical"death metal realm with some amazing guitar
work and solo's.the drums{which are programmed} are blasting assults of
insanity but also have at times some actual mid-paced drum patterns
which fit perfectly into the bands original,and brutal sound.the vocals
are brutal growls and occasionally whispery style of vocals.fans of
brutal,technical death metal will enjoy cyclotron's brutal yet original
approach to death metal.
{SPECIAL
NOTE TO READERS:at time of writing/posting this review cyclotron are
offering BOTH demo's for FREE-download from their myspace page.so if
interested take a few minutes and listen,and download.

december's cold winter-ablaze all shrines cd {self-released}{done by patrick}
according
to the band's bio they released this cd themselves.which is a surprise
to me considering the music released on ablaze all shrines is some of
the best death metal ever recorded on a cd.the costa rican band has a
flawless sound of straight-forward death metal and some thrash
influence in the guitars.sick growls and intense shrieks fit perfectly
into december's brutal sound.this should please both fans of
death/thrash metal or pure death metal.

flagellation--incinerate,disentegrate mcd {last entertainment
prod.}{done by patrick}
flagellation
hail from sweden and what a metal masterpiece the band has created here
with incinerate,disintegrate.6 tracks of dark death/thrash metal!! the
band seems to have a very aggressive sound and approach.but also add
some very "epic" and dark atmosphere within the aggression.starting the
cd off with a orchestrated and epic intro the band quickly springs into
a more aggressive thrashing sound.the vocals are gruff and fit well
within the bands sound.flagellation are one of the more original
sounding bands and should surprise alot of fans into dark aggressive
death/thrash.

HACRIDE "LAZARUS"
Reviewed by Lori
Hacride is a 4 peace band from France. Their music is different...hard
to describe. At times it is tech. death, extreme metal to avant guard,
groove all in one song. Vocals also change from death style to screams
to more of a singing style.
Through out the CD your mind rips
through the different layers of each song, almost hypnotized and
relaxed by the calmness you'll feel,but then jerked into a black hole
of pain and confusion. .
The production is well done, very clear
and has a rich velvety aspect, but the death metal parts kinda ruin it.
They are not a good death metal band, but what they are good at is
avant guard and the other parts of their music.
I really dig the
parts of the song "to walk among them", the melodic metal parts with
the rough vocals and the funky bad ass guitar riffs the follows. Eck
then comes the death metal that ruins it, but its not horrible. Then
towards the middle of the song there is a nice calm spot with clean
vocal then there comes the death again. They need to ditch their death
metal days....seriously.
Each song is very long, and through out the
songs the changes death metal to melodic, avant guard, etc is flawless,
effortless.
The longer I listen to the CD the less I want to toss it is the trash when I am done reviewing.

HATESPHERE "TO THE NINES" CD
Napalm records
Reviewed by Lori
This is the 5 piece Danish band's latest release, "to the nines".
Formed in the year of 2000 by guitarist Peter Hansen this bad ass trash
death band quickly dominated the scene and to this date still
dominating with ferocity. After the last album their was a line up
change, all members are different except for Peter H.
Through out this release you will hear high speed riffs, memorable
melodies and technical power, and awesome solos, brilliance!
So
far the song that stick out is "cloaked in shit". Starts off with
hypnotic thrasy riffs than the sore throat scream/gutturals blast
through. I feel my head nodding, foot taping then comes. the drummer
wale on the drums/symbols helping to bring "cloaked in shit" one of the
best songs on the album.
"Clarity" tromps in right after with a
galloping beat, deep gutturals, mid temple riffs, a smooth groovy
sound...than heavy head banging riffs, agony screams, back to the
galloping, another great song.
Fans of this genera should check
this band out. From what I have read as Ive never heard their earlier
albums is that this release is different than there past ones. Some
like some dont, but in my opinion you will not regret checking out "to
the nines"

a new vocalist in the way of matti way{ex-disgorge} his pure guttural

guttural vokills,some of the best and intense drumming to be heard. and
a heavy guitar/bass all of these elements mixed with a top-notch
