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

No, I’m not fuckin’ late, this review is about the tape release by Gravplass Propaganda of the “Through the Eternal Damnation” EP which was released by Hellthrasher Productions in 2012. There are no extra songs or something like that, just another physical format. Engulfed from Turkey play their Death Metal the American way…the obscure and dark way. So at first a band like Incantation will cross your mind…but they also shop a bit of at Old School SweDeath-mart. Not soundwise, but some riffs now and then. Incantation, Immolation, Burial Invocation, Grave Miasma, Morbid Angel. One way or another they can be linked with the blasphemous Death Metal played by Engulfed. The Burial Invocation link isn’t that strange as there are ex-members present within the ranks of Engulfed, as well as members of Deggial and Decaying Purity. Although this is not a total-must-have, it’s certainly a decent release. (Ricardo)
