REVIEW: DEAD AGAIN RECORDS - PRICK PRODUCTIONS : THE DEAD PIT COMPILATION

 


DEAD AGAIN RECORDS - PRICK PRODUCTIONS : THE DEAD PIT COMPILATION (2000) : As the title of this compilation says, this are 19 of the world´s sickest bands. Form legendary bands as Agathocles (Bélgium) up to others that I didn´t know about as Inner War or Grot have their place here. Gorerotted is the band in this compilation with better sound (surprisingly clean) and that amkes that their song shines in the whole CD. This is the main difference with bands such as Deepred, who are a band with great ideas but a bad sound quality. A good surprise for me was Prophecy, band that I had not listened before, iknteresting drum patterns and frenetic guitar solos are framed in their track "Tortured by Deceit". We have also the well known Inhumate with two great songs. The bands in this compilation really show that grind/death is a total standing style and that it is possible to play it with great quality and musicianship. Other bands that are on this CD are: Machetazo, Regorge, Brutal Insanity and Drogheda among others. Favorite tracks: "Gagged, Shagged, Bodybagged" (Gorerotted), "Tortured by Deceit" (Prophecy) and "Underground" (Inhumate). Contact: www.deadagain.fsnet.co.uk or promo@deadagain.fsnet.co.uk
