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

Death Metal created by 2 Germans who knew each other from the days of  Diabolical Imperium, a Death/Thrash Metal band that have released 2 full-lengths and 1 EP.

With Rexul Simone and Benny took the American styled Death Metal as blueprint for their own creation, and with American we can pinpoint it to Florida in the 90s. Riffs, leads and certain melodies are the stars on this parade, as it is a good mix of what Deicide, Morbid Angel and Brutality did in the 1990s. For the fans of those bands it is easy to hear the influences within the songs; “This is definitely Deicide”, “This is 100% Brutality” and so on when you hear a particular lead, riff or part of a song. Rexul just put it all in a pot and made stew out of it. A tasty one, I may add.

Though it doesn’t reinvent the wheel, Rexul’s album is a satisfying listen with potential for a future release.
