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

French Technical Death Metal band Carcariass is a special band in my books. They were the first band who have send their material (their debut “Hell on Earth”) to Vampire Magazine back in 1997 and was featured in our first xeroxed issue with a review and interview. This compilation contains the re-mastered versions of the “Ancestral War” demo, their debut “Hell on Earth” and their second album “Sideral Torment”. As said the Death Metal is technical but not for the sake of being technical. Creating songs is still their core business with fine riffs, strong leads and an audible Steve DiGiorgio like bass sound. If you are into later Death, it doesn’t hurt one bit to give this a try. In my humble opinion, Carcariass never got the attention they deserve. (Ricardo)
