GOSUDAR RELEASE NEW DEMO

 


PRESS RELEASE:

Demo

by Gosudar

Label: Rotted Life Records


Tracklist:

1.King of Pain 04:39

2.Anathema 04:29


Death metal written on ancient manuscripts and delivered with a menacing scowl, this 2 song demo from Russia’s Gosudar offers a heavy dose of darkness and foreboding atmospheres, ruthless in execution as it builds to majestic heights, only to be torn down in crushing, doom filled waves of cyclonic destruction. Suffocating and bleak, and yet epic and sweeping, Gosudar should find immediate appeal among fans of Incantation, Dead Congregation and Cruciamentum.

"Rather than delivering their death blow by means of overt brutality, Russia's Gosudar deals, quite comfortably, in atmosphere. Nearly qualifying as doom at times, the emphasis on establishing a dense and foreboding ambiance takes priority over burly riffage. The comparison to Cruciamentum feels particularly apt--much like their abyssal forefathers, Gosudar excel at building a track to a natural pinnacle, before breaking it down to its gloomiest elements. While this formula applies to both tracks, it feels best executed on King of Pain, which features a wonderfully aggressive vocal climax at the peak of a progressively intense instrumental climb. While the guitar tone, in particular, is much heavier than something dredged from the catacombs of Grave Miasma, second track Anathema recalls a keen ability to lead the listener through a series of increasingly heavy passages."

The Fifth day in the 2nd week of a past October. It was the day we received the word, the voice and the vision that comprise what we call DEVENEROR. This manifestation, the first of a series of theophanies, dictated us the foundation of our first work, which was ultimately named "Kenoma".

Kenoma is the direct result of transcribing the first two theophanies, using visual, lyrical and musical resources to properly translate the metaphysical and philosophical elements of our experiences into a cognoscible narration.

PHLEBOTOMIZED RELEASE "DEFORMATION OF HUMANITY"

Deformation Of Humanity

1.Premonition (Impending Doom) 01:11

2.Chambre Ardente 08:36

9.Deformation Of Humanity 07:10

10.Until The End - Reprise 03:24

11.Ataraxia II 02:44


Phlebotomized return to their roots and finally deliver a follow-up to “Immense Intense Suspense” 25 years later!

The full length debut “Immense Intense Suspense” from this Death/Doom/Avant-garde Metal act from the Netherlands served up both originality and integrity back in 1994. Phlebotomized started out as a Grindcore/Death Metal band, releasing their early demos in that style. Somewhere along the line the band decided to change their style, as “Immense, Intense, Suspense” valued melodies and symphonic passages. This change did not take away the evil, depressing mood that drifted through the music. It took the Death Metal scene by storm, giving the band and the album a legendary Cult status worldwide. A true classic ahead of its time.

The album took what Demilich wrote on “Nespithe” and build on it. The band took what Nocturnus did on “The Key” and added their own little twist. It has got the twisting and amorphous song structures of early At The Gates, and then some. It had a melancholic feeling only achieved better by the mighty old My Dying Bride.

From those days, to the present: “Deformation of Humanity” was written and recorded during a long process from 2015 until 2018 and sees the band return to their roots, back to where they left us in 1994. The majority of “Deformation of Humanity” is still doomy and mid-paced, but also contains really fast parts. It actually creates a great atmosphere, thereby putting the keyboards to proper use. It sounds very inspiring and atmospheric, full of details, skilled musicianship and has a top-notch production which is very warm and rich. The first thing you notice - hovering above the pounding guitar riffs - are the keyboard passages that serve the rhythm section. Melancholic, yet brutal, the songs present a story. The music does not really have a true defined form. You will hear grunted vocals, as well as the occasional clean vocal passage. Acoustic guitars open songs, while the keyboards are ever-present. A gloomy atmosphere is placed, while the keyboard dances with violent Death Metal guitar riffs.

If you are a Death Metal fan that still craves for the 90’s, you need this! We guarantee you it does not get better than this. Simple! If you need to bang your head check out “Deformation of Humanity” for some real Old School Death Metal. For those of you who need not mindlessly bang their head, who can allow things like atmosphere and intelligence to occasionally enter into your realm, you will really appreciate this just as well. But still, we would not justify what Phlebotomized delivers on this come-back album, because there is so much more to hear and discover. Something that is rare these days, an album that grows, an album that reveals something new with each spin. Perhaps it is again an album ahead of its time, although it is definitely looking back in time just as well.

3.The Pu-erh Exhumed 10:58

4.Passacaglia D minor, White and Black Darkness 23:19


Dear listeners.

'Verferum' is an ode to what seems to be never-ending and reveals itself to be short and finite. Memento mori.

We take funeral doom as a rite. It is a magnificent shrine in a mysterious wild nature which we enter with sacred fear. The church organ is an instrument of celebration of the moments like this. Organ as a brutal mass bearing the guitar and vocal compositions, organ as an ethereal sigh, distant chants. Sharpened senses. Hope. Waiting. Atonement.

We pay homage to J. S. Bach. His immortal work was our great inspiration, especially Prelude & Fugue C minor BWV546 and Passacaglia C minor BWV582.

The album is to be listened loud.

Yours Faithfully – Quercus

EMBRIONAL RELEASE "EVIL DEAD"

 


PRESS RELEASE:

EVIL DEAD

by EMBRIONAL


Tracklist:

1.Ending up on The Gallow 04:50

2.Vileness... 04:50

3.Inhuman Lusts 04:06

4.Lord of Skulls 05:28

5.Day of Damnation 04:07

6.Endless Curse 04:12

7.Abomination 04:30

8.Damned by Dogmas 06:19


EVIL DEAD is the title of Embrional's third full length featuring 8 tracks that follow up on the horde's death metal insanity, much more mature in terms of composition in comparison to the band's previous albums.

The music on the record is not only an expression of the band's explorations but, above all, a manifestation of the dormant emotions, angst and darkness. It's an album most diversified in terms of composition, but also a piece of very straightforward and devastating death metal. It contains both very heavy and crushing, depressing sounds, and maniacal twists and turns. EVIL DEAD is not an album that flows peacefully but leaves you disturbingly craving for more...

Find out for yourself, enter the abyss of the poisoned sounds of EVIL DEAD!

DICTATOR RE-RELEASE "DYSANGELIST"

 


PRESS RELEASE:

Band: Dictator

Album: Dysangelist [re-issue]

Country: Cyprus

Genre: Black/Funeral Doom Metal, Dark Ambient

Label: Aesthetic Death

Release date: January 7th, 2019



The responsibility of the artist is to be true, nothing more and nothing less. Even if that means to turn the eye inwards to inspect and dissect whatever lies within him which is petty, self-centred, extraneous. Dictator, rummaging, at first, through the unrefined turmoil of adolescent angst, finally, through no lack of painful introspection, managed to crystallise a vision into something which transcends both the creator and the listener. Now his blood and toil belong to us. Here, reverence and horrific dissonance find themselves in an unlikely alliance. What God transpires through the creation’s lyricism is not a God the common mind can bear. And what better way to bring Him into consciousness than music? For it is only music which overcomes matter on this earth. As such, the music itself is not an exercise in poignant self-indulgence but rather, a litany, an act of audial martyrdom if you will. The choice of labelling is incidental, funereal, suicidal, whatever. The point is that the man plunged his hands into the heart of the beast and held it for us bloody and obscene. Blinding to the many, liberating to the few, there are indeed precious shards of light which escape between these sombre notes and penetrate most acutely, almost welcomingly. That is the nature of Dysangelist, it cannot reveal, only awaken.

USURPER RELEASE "LORDS OF THE PERMAFROST"

 


PRESS RELEASE:

Usurper

Lords of the Permafrost

Soulseller Records

22 February 2019


Legendary Chicago metal band Usurper returns to the airwaves this March with their sixth album, Lords of the Permafrost, via Soulseller Records.  Founding members Rick Scythe and Joe Warlord are joined by bassist Scott Maelstrom and Cryptobeast-era vocalist Dan Tyrantor for a release that captures the band's unrelenting determination to bring heavy metal horror to the masses.


Says the band,

"After a 14-year hiatus, Usurper are proud to return with our sixth full length album entitled, "Lords of the Permafrost".  Back when we formed in 1993, we had the goal to create heavy, memorable songs with the anthemic quality of traditional Heavy Metal, combined with the heaviness of death metal, the fury of thrash metal, the atmosphere of black metal and the straight-forward, ass-kicking of 70's Hard Rock.... 25 years later, we feel we have stayed true to our original objective and have recorded the quintessential Usurper album. Lyrically these songs explore topics such as monster folklore, the paranormal and other obscure tales, all while being delivered with a lethal dose of Heavy Metal bravado. Usurper never have, and never will chase trends. We have only returned to bring our next chapter of metal to the Worldwide Warriors of Iron and Rust, and kick maximum ass!"   


The band has released a lyric video for the album's title track which can be viewed here:

About Usurper

Formed in the early 1990s, Usurper has released five full length albums and toured worldwide, headlining metal festivals in Europe and the United States and also supporting the likes of Manowar, Cradle of Filth, Enthroned, and Enslaved.  Eschewing social and political ideologies, the band writes classic heavy metal anthems that incorporate folklore, science fiction, and paranormal topics.  On the eve of releasing their sixth album Lords of the Permafrost, which may be their strongest work yet, this Usurper delivers a heavy metal punch in the gut that's just as relevant today as when they rose through the ranks of the underground music scene twenty-five years ago.


Track Listing:

1. Skull Splitter

2. Beyond The Walls Of Ice

3. Lords Of The Permafrost

4. Cemetery Wolf

5. Warlock Moon

6. Gargoyle

7. Black Tide Rising
