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

This badass quartet does nothing to hide their influences: relentless late 80s Brazilian insanity that drinks from the goblet the most brutal Sextrash, Sepultura or Sarcofago served ever since.

Fortunately, they reminded blast beats are not everything that makes a Death / Thrash band sound brutal; Orlando (the drummer) adds some groovy D-beat rhythms which, inserted to the intentional bass-heavy production make it sound as albums such as “Into the Grave” (Grave) or “Schizophrenia” (Sepultura); in a fewer words, it sounds HUGE.

Lyrically they command us to surrender to the underground movement, be it an ideological-religious thing (the left hand path) or a social one (rejection of traditional values and capitalism as a symbol of progress). All in all an interesting album that is catchy from the first listen. Snap! (Diego E.)
