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

Spain’s Sanctuarium has certainly lingered in the dark pits of the 90s with their Doom/Death Metal.

Heavy, slow riffs and occasional uptempo outbursts are paired with the gargling of a slit throat, serving as a narrator for decaying remains. A blend of Autopsy, Coffins and Incantation, along with a touch of early Cathedral, hits you like the stench of stacked bodies.

Nothing has been smoothed out, and those who prefer a modern sound won’t last long listening to this. However, these Catalonians would almost certainly take that as a compliment rather than an insult.
