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

It’s have been a while since Verminous created some blasphemous tones to support the unholy crusade and spread darkness around the globe. Ten fuckin’ years to be more precise, although the band was on hiatus between 2004 and 2010 because of the hearing problems of Linus “Germaniac” Björklund. Otherwise the gap between the two albums would be less, I assume. Nevertheless, “The Unholy Communion” is a hell of a comeback! Filthy and putrid Old School Death Metal baptized in a pool of infernal morbidity. Do I hear a “Hell Yeah!!”? If you are familiar with their debut, you would know these guys are from Sweden but are not playing the famous Stockholm-Death Metal in the vein of Dismember and Entombed. It’s more in the vein of Repugnant (riff and production wise), Kaamos (brutality), and a more recent band, Degial (darkness). Old School Death Metal with Thrash and Black edges…you can’t go wrong with this one. (Ricardo)
