A new review section: Buried by Time And Dust

We added a new review section, coincidentally another Mayhem reference following 'The Past is Alive', with the title 'Buried by Time and Dust'. Over the years, a lot of promos have been gathering dust simply because a fresh wave of promos arrived the following month and they were consigned to oblivion. We will review them here to make a clear distinction with our other reviews. We will also use it to complete a discography in terms of reviews. Feel free to contact us if you would like to submit your music or would like to join the staff.

Info

After listening to their last EP, I want you to imagine some dirty primal Death Metal added with some thrash input and with nowadays Bloodbath-influences – more precisely the vocal part then. Just listen to track “Mutilating Accursed Souls” and perhaps you agree with me. Musically seen the music these Americans offer is in the vein of old school death metal of Autopsy, but with some rarities inserted. What sticks by the most are the blast-beats that fill the sound and songs with a raw attitude, along with the strong vocals of Tom Patmore. Also mid-paced metal is audible with melodic guitar solo’s (title track ‘Hour of Summoning’) and some early thrash parts, but again with the blast beats that give the sound a boost. And this EP is a very strong one, cause each time you’ll give this one a spin, it gets better and better, and that’s what a great disc has as goal. (Fredde)
