REVIEW: DEFILED - UGLINESS REVEALED

 

DEFILED - UGLINESS REVEALED (Deathvomit Recs./Baphomet Recs. - 2001): Defiled is a band that comes from japan and this is their second recording, and the first one for Deathvomit/Baphomet. A strange introduction with guttural sounds takes us to the first, "Lies for a Lie", and we find a great band of death metal with riffs that aim more to power and potency than to speed, like the last four or five Morbid Angel albums (it is really interesting the work of the bass player in this CD, and we can hear him perfectly because of the great mix). One thing that call my attention was the number of intros that this CD has (seven to be precise) one before each of the first seven songs. The sound is really good and I think that this guys have to use a lot their technique to do complex riffs. It seems that this band is very wellknown in Japan and it has supported bands such as Vader and Impaled Nazarene. The most interesting thing about this band is their quest for originality (specially in the guitar riffs). Contact: Deathvomit Recs: www.deathvomit.com
