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

A cassette re-release by Krucyator Productions of Auroch debut album “From Forgotten Worlds” which was released in 2012. You will get a non-easy-listening blend of Death Metal in the vein of late Morbid Angel, Immolation, Cryptopsy and other early brutal and technical Unique Leader Records releases with over the top leads. There is a shade of Black Metal due the combination of low growls and shrieks as well. Although the masses already embraced the album when it got out, I have to admit I only like the leads and some parts of the songs as the technical brutality has to many unnecessary twists if you ask me. In my opinion, the guys within Morbid Angel, Immolation or Deeds of Flesh (to name one of those Unique Leader Records bands) do it a bit better when I listen to tracks like “Domination”, “Father, you’re not a Father” and “Lustmord”.
