The Nefilim....I don´t know if this guys are related in some way to that great band called Fields of the Nephilim. This band is in the middle path between really death metal and industrial, adding some gothic touches. The vocals are killer and brutal and give a different feeling to the tracks whose riffs are more classical metal. There are keyboards and sound effects that create the industrial atmosphere that I was talking about . The clean guitars in some places make interesting calm passages that turn into extreme heaviness when the crushing guitars and the vocals enter. This is a really powerful release from this band. I would love to hear more from them. Favorite tracks: "Penetration", "Venus Decomposing" and "Coma". Contact: www.roadrunnerrecords.com
